โYemenโs Houthi rebels on Monday alleged a U.S. airstrike hit a prison holding African migrants, killing at least 68 people and wounding 47 others. The U.S. military did not acknowledge carrying out the strike.

Ethiopians and other African migrants for years have landed in Yemen, braving the war-torn nation to try and reach Saudi Arabia for work.
Migrants from Ethiopia have found themselves detained, abused and even killed in Saudi Arabia and Yemen during the war.

โThough a mediator, which is required by the court, will try to help the sides reach a settlement, there is no guarantee that an agreement will be reached.

A deal would be a remarkable concession by a major U.S. media company to a politician, especially in a case in which there is no evidence that the network got facts wrong or damaged the plaintiffโs reputation [1].โ

@RepMTG @mtgreenee did not take offense to being asked whether her plan for a ยปnational divorceยซ between red and blue areas was inspired by her own recent divorce from her husband. She knows other people are making the connection, but says her ยปpersonal lifeยซ was not a factor

Prince William, representing King Charles III, who was absent due to health reasons, opted for a classic dark suit and tie, aligning more closely with The Vaticanสผs expectations for such occasions.
@RonFilipkowski @realDonaldTrump 3).
His attire was noted for its appropriateness and respect for the solemnity of the event, however, it also drew criticism as his suit was dark blue and not black.
Former President Joe Biden also deviated from the norm, opting to wear a blue tie.

ยปIt makes me think that maybe he doesnโt want to stop the war, heโs just tapping me alongยซ.
