Houthis advance in Yemen as over 110,000 people flee homes

More than 110,000 people have left their homes in Yemen in the past two weeks because of heavy fighting. Houthi rebels, supported by Iran, have taken control of Yemen's west coast and moved toward an important sea passage called the Bab al-Mandab Strait. They have also fired missiles and drones at Saudi military bases and oil facilities. Thousands of Yemenis have crossed the Red Sea to reach Djibouti. The war began in 2014 and has killed over 150,000 people. A ceasefire in 2022 reduced the violence, but fighting has started again in recent months. Aid agencies say they are running out of supplies for displaced people, and Yemen has already faced famine conditions many times during the conflict.
