Following a bomb attack in Sana'a last Thursday, 9 October, which killed at least 47 people, Houthis line the street of the capital mourning the dead in a funeral procession on Wednesday.

Though the attack is thought to have been carried out by Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), many Houthis blame America and Israel, as well as their allies in the Gulf, who they see as being behind a conspiracy to undermine their movement.
