Houthi Officials Report 13 Killed in Strike on Northern Yemen Market
Saudi-led airstrikes reportedly killed 13 people and wounded 16 at a busy market in northern Yemen, according to Houthi officials.
Houston, TX, October 28, 2026 —
Houthi officials said Saudi-led airstrikes killed 13 people and wounded 16 at a busy market in northern Yemen. The casualty figures and account of the strike are attributed to those officials; no independent confirmation or additional account was provided in the available information.
The report describes the location as a busy market but does not identify the market, give a more precise location, or state when the strikes occurred. It also does not provide details about the circumstances of the attack or identify who was among those killed and wounded.
The information provided does not include a response from Saudi officials or other parties. It is also unclear whether the reported figures may change as further information becomes available. No details were given about medical care for the wounded or damage at the market.
The reported toll is therefore limited to the figures and attribution supplied by Houthi officials: 13 people killed and 16 wounded. Further information would be needed to establish additional details about the incident, including its timing, the precise site and whether other accounts corroborate the report.
