> More than 132,000 people have been displaced by recent fighting and Houthi territorial gains, pushing Yemen toward a renewed humanitarian emergency. After the Houthis captured Mokha port town in September, families fled to places including Aden, while the group continues advancing toward the Kahboub Mountains near Taiz. The WHO says at least 674 people have been killed and 2,998 injured since fighting intensified in August.
