  "summary": "Canada has condemned Houthi strikes on Maashiq Palace in Aden, Yemen, which resulted in five deaths and several injuries. In a post on X, the Canadian embassy in Saudi Arabia offered condolences to the victims' families and called for an immediate de-escalation.\n\nSeparately, the Korean Ambassador to the United Nations, Cha Ji-hoon, addressed the U.N. Security Council regarding Houthi attacks targeting civilian infrastructure and threatening commercial shipping in the Red Sea. During a debate on the Middle East held Thursday, Cha warned that these actions pose risks to energy supplies, maritime security, and global peace.\n\nThe Korean Ambassador urged the Security Council to strengthen sanctions to cut off weapon supplies to the group and called for an immediate halt to all attacks against civilians. The Korea Times reported that these attacks included two consecutive strikes on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh last week.",
