  "summary": "Saudi air strikes in Yemen have resulted in at least 12 casualties, including three children, according to Houthi media reports. The strikes targeted civilian homes in the Taiz governorate, killing nine people and wounding 16, with more individuals still trapped under the rubble. The Houthi news agency also reported earlier strikes in Dhamar province, which killed three children and wounded 17 others, alleging the use of banned cluster bombs. The Saudi-led coalition responded to the incident by claiming they had intercepted four drones, including one over the capital, Riyadh, earlier on Saturday.",
