- Houthis killed 7 people and wounded 30 in an attack on Yemen's port city of Mocha, according to statements from the Yemeni military reported by Reuters.
- Houthis renewed missile and drone strikes on Yemen's port of al-Makha and struck Marib again, as the U.N. warned Yemen is nearing a wider conflict (Al Jazeera, NYT).
Why it matters: Cross-source coverage shows Houthi attacks expanding across multiple Yemeni cities simultaneously — Mocha and Marib within the same news cycle — while the U.N. publicly warned Yemen is nearing wider conflict, indicating an escalation in geographic scope beyond a single frontline.
