A number of Houthi faction leaders, including the individual referred to as their "Prime Minister", have reportedly been killed in an aerial strike according to the breaking Japanese media reports. The news has sent shockwaves through the global political arena, with Japan among the nations expressing its concerns over the escalating conflict in Yemen.

Japan, despite being historically non-interferential in Middle Eastern affairs, is particularly concerned about the current situation due to its potential impact on global peace and stability. As one of the world's largest oil importers, Japan has a vested interest in a stable Middle East. The attention this news receives in Japan also reflects the country's growing role and responsibility on the global stage.

The U.S. and the EU, unlike Japan, have direct involvement with the Middle East's politics and conflicts. However, similar to Japan, they are also expressing deep concern over the escalating situation in Yemen. Both regions have significant strategic and economic interests in the Middle East and have called for peaceful resolutions to the ongoing conflicts.
