  "summary": "A Saudi airstrike on a marketplace in Taiz, southwest Yemen, has killed seven people and wounded 40 more. The strike targeted commercial shops at Taiz Central Market, according to Houthi media reports cited by Punch.\n\nThe Hindustan Times reports that Yemen's internationally recognised government said its forces had targeted a Houthi military camp and vehicles at the same junction, with three military sources claiming Houthi militants had recently established a military camp near the market.\n\nThe strikes came amid ongoing tensions between Saudi Arabia and Yemen's Houthis, with Riyadh coming under attack from Yemen's Houthis over the weekend. Saudi-backed coalition forces said they had intercepted drones and a ballistic missile targeting the kingdom.",
