In Yemen, Saudi-led airstrikes have continued despite a U.N. truce aimed at delivering much-needed humanitarian aid. Clashes between Houthi rebels and fighters loyal to ousted President Abdu Rabbu Mansour Hadi killed at least 35 people Sunday near the southern port city of Aden. Meanwhile, Saudi-led strikes targeting the Houthis killed at least 10 civilians across Yemen, including a family of eight. On Saturday, a mass funeral was held for 53 soldiers killed when Saudi-led strikes erroneously hit a military base filled with troops fighting on the same side as the Saudis. The United States backs the Saudi campaign in Yemen, despite widespread civilian casualties.
