    On October 19, Houthi rebels launched three ballistic missiles against a Saudi-managed training camp in Yemen's Shabwa province, resulting in at least 75 deaths and over 200 injuries.

    Federal Court Reopens Case on ICE Actions in Churches

    A federal appeals court in the US has allowed 27 religious organizations to continue their legal battle to reinstate protections limiting ICE raids in churches and places of worship. The decision reverses a previous ruling that dismissed the organizations' request for a temporary protective order. The case, Mennonite Church USA v. Department of Homeland Security, will now return to a federal district court for further review. While the ruling does not prohibit arrests in these places, it allows organizations to seek judicial protection again.
