Canada condemns Houthi strikes on Maashiq Palace in Aden

Single source · Aden, Yemen · 2026-10-17 04:06 UTC

The Canadian embassy in Saudi Arabia, as relayed by Middle East Eye from a post on X, condemns Houthi strikes on Maashiq Palace in Aden, offers condolences to victims' families and calls for immediate de-escalation. A Breakingthenews.net report attributes a condemnation to Canada of a Houthi strike on an unnamed palace in Aden. Both reports trace back to the same Canadian statement, and no independent source confirms the strike itself.

• Breakingthenews.net describes a strike on an unnamed palace in Aden, while Middle East Eye names Maashiq Palace and refers to multiple strikes.
• The Breakingthenews.net claim lists Canada as the attacker, which conflicts with its own summary of a Canadian condemnation of a Houthi strike.
