A Houthi militia attack that hit a residential neighborhood in Taiz, killing and injuring children, has angered human rights defenders in Yemen with the government calling for more pressure on the Iran-backed group to get it to commit to the UN-sponsored truce before it expires on August 2.
The Houthi attack on al-Rawda neighborhood injured 11 boys and girls, mostly under the age of 10, and one of the boys later died of his injuries. Some of the children are in critical condition.
