SANAA, July 12 (Xinhua) -- Yemen's Houthi group announced on Saturday the issuing of a freshly minted 50-riyal coin. A new metal coin of 50 riyals will be put into circulation starting Sunday, Houthi-run al-Masirah TV reported, citing a statement by the Houthi-controlled central bank in the capital Sanaa.

It’s possible that Israel could deem any Houthi facility or asset suspected of being used for drug production/trafficking as a military target.'

More than 17 million people in conflict-torn Yemen are going hungry, including over a million children under the age of 5 who are suffering from ''life-threatening acute malnutrition,'' the United Nations humanitarian chief said Wednesday.
