  "account": "Yemen’s Houthi rebels have launched missile attacks on government military camps in Hadramout and Marib governorates, resulting in the deaths of at least 30 soldiers and injuries to 15 others, according to government sources. These strikes mark the deadliest in years for Yemen's civil war and highlight the surge in violence witnessed recently. Houthi spokesman Yahya Saree claimed that the attacks, utilizing missiles and drones, caused \"hundreds\" of fatalities. The Yemeni military acknowledged the assaults, attributing them to retaliation for their own actions against the Houthis.\n\nThe Houthi military dispatched eight missiles from al-Jawf governorate, situated north of Marib, striking al-Thiniya and al-Abr in Hadramout and al-Rouk in Marib. Authorities anticipate the casualty count to escalate. Yemen's civil war, fueled by four years of relative peace, has recently intensified as the Houthis, backed by Iran, clash with Saudi-backed government forces. Additionally, the Houthis have imposed a maritime blockade on Saudi Arabia and targeted ships linked to the kingdom. The conflict ignited in 2014 when the Houthis seized Sanaa, the Yemeni capital, followed by a Saudi-led coalition intervention that has not managed to subdue the rebels.",
