  "summary": "An attack by the Houthi movement on the al-Alam government security forces training camp in Yemen's Shabwa province has killed 73 people, according to the provincial media office and senior government officials. The strike, which involved ballistic missiles, targeted new recruits aged between 18 and 20. The Korea Times reports that the incident is the deadliest strike since fighting escalated three months ago.\n\nFourteen people remain missing following the strike, according to Al-Monitor. The attack occurred on Monday during a surge of fighting between the Iran-aligned Houthis and Yemen’s internationally recognized government, which is backed by a Saudi-led coalition.\n\nThe Korea Times notes that the recent escalation in conflict began after government and coalition forces launched airstrikes on the Houthi-held Sanaa International Airport in July, which shattered a 2022 ceasefire deal.",
