Yemen: Dozens 'killed' in Houthi attack on Aden military parade
Rebels launch medium-range ballistic missile, armed drone at military parade in the southern city of Aden, report says.

An explosion in Aden, the seat of Yemen's internationally recognised government, has killed dozens of people and wounded many others, according to reports.

The Houthi rebel movement, which controls the capital, Sanaa, claimed responsibility for the attack on Thursday which targeted a military parade at a camp in the southern city.

Reuters news agency quoted a medical and a security source as saying at least 32 people were killed in the blast at al-Jalaa military camp, in Aden's Buraiqa district. A health official told The Associates Press news agency the death toll stood at more than 40.
