Calls to protect Taiz ambulances amid conflicting casualty accounts
Aden Al Ghad published a statement by the Taiz joint emergency medical committee blaming the Houthis for attacks on ambulances. It cited preliminary information that a father and driver were wounded in a vehicle carrying a deceased person, and that another ambulance was targeted in al-Shaqab. In a separate statement, Women for Peace Alliance head Nora al-Jarawi said a medic was killed and a wounded man and his father injured, while an earlier account continues to report the deaths of the wounded man and his father and the injury of a medic. It is unclear whether these descriptions concern one incident, and the toll remains unresolved; the development is publication of calls for protection and an investigation, not proof of an additional attack or new deaths.

Sanaa health authorities raise reported toll from earlier Bani Hushaysh strike to 40 dead and 40 wounded
The official channel of the Houthi-run health ministry published a statement by Anis al-Asbahi saying the toll from the strike on al-Shariyah village in Bani Hushaysh had risen to 40 dead and 40 wounded, with searches continuing for missing people. The ministry blamed Saudi Arabia and said most victims were children. This updates a strike on homes reported on 7 November, not a new strike within the window; neither the toll nor the circumstances have been independently verified.
