A woman was killed and five civilians, including another woman and a young girl, were wounded in an attack in the Sabir al-Mawadim district, located southeast of Taiz, Yemen. The incident reportedly involved a combination of shelling and sniper fire directed at residential properties and villages within the al-Shaqab area.

According to reports citing the Taiz Human Rights Centre, the attack was carried out by Houthi forces. The information regarding the casualties was disseminated through local Yemeni media outlets. While the reports identify the perpetrators as Houthi fighters, there has been no immediate public response or confirmation from Houthi leadership regarding the specific allegations of targeting these residential areas. The situation in Taiz remains volatile, as the region has been a long-standing flashpoint in the ongoing Yemeni conflict, frequently resulting in civilian casualties due to crossfire and artillery exchanges between opposing factions.
