Yemen: Hostages Released as Saudi-Led Strikes Kill Family 
----------------------------------------------------------


 
In news from Yemen, six foreign hostages, including two Americans, have
been freed by Houthi rebels after months in captivity. The news comes as
the latest U.S.-backed, Saudi-led airstrikes targeting the Houthi rebels
have killed dozens more people. Airstrikes over the weekend hit the Old
City in the Yemeni capital Sana'a, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, killing
10 members of a single family, including eight children.
