Hospital Hit in Yemen Air Strike

Yemen strikes; Syria napalm; Yellow fever

The conflict in Yemen claimed more lives on Monday - a medical facility run by Medecins Sans Frontieres was bombed in the north of the country killing at least 11 people.

People living in a suburb just outside Syria's capital Damascus say their government is using napalm against them.
