40 died , others were injured when a mass transit bus carrying about 50 passengers fell in Naqil al-Qubeita, north of Lahj governorate in southern Yemen, on the road extending to the city of Taiz, on which the Houthi militia has imposed a stifling siege for 8 years, according to local sources.
The "Yemen Future" media platform quoted a source in the mass transportation company, that a man and a woman died and six passengers sustained serious fractures. They were subsequently transferred to the health facility in the neighboring Al Rahda area to receive the necessary surgical procedure before continuing their arduous journey towards the city of Mukalla (east of Yemen).
Travelers to and from the city are forced to cross rugged and dangerous mountain roads, while the Houthi militia has so far rejected UN proposals to open Taiz roads based on the humanitarian armistice agreement that ended 14 days ago, six months after its entry into force, according to understandings between the government and the Houthi militia under the auspices of the United Nations.
