At least 53 people have been killed in a Houthi ballistic missile attack on a training camp for Yemeni government forces, making it the largest single loss of life since the country’s civil war reignited in September. The attack on al-Alam camp in the southern Shabwa province was said to have injured more than 200 others, mostly young recruits, and described as a disaster by the country’s UN-recognised government. The injured were taken from the police and army training camp in the Jardan district to a hospital in the local capital, Ataq, where pleas for blood donations were made.

Reliable assessments of the death toll in the fighting over the last month are hard to gather, but it is running into the many thousands. A Saudi airstrike on Sunday killed nine, including five children and two women.
