Yemen: U.S.-Backed Airstrikes Kill 130 Members of Wedding Party 
----------------------------------------------------------------


 
In news from Yemen, U.S.-backed, Saudi-led airstrikes have killed at
least 130 civilians after mistakenly bombing a wedding party Monday. The
attack appears to be one of the deadliest in the year-old conflict. It
occurred near the southern port city of Mokha, where U.S.-backed,
Saudi-led airstrikes killed more than 120 people in late July in an
attack that Human Rights Watch said may amount to war crimes.
