Reuters published an on-the-ground account at 16:34 UTC on 29 October. In Taiz, pregnant resident Amal al-Sabri told Reuters that a sniper bullet lodged near her spine while she was trapped at home for two days; medics at Al-Thawra Hospital said they could not scan her because she was more than four months pregnant. Reuters cited the International Committee of the Red Cross saying frontline hospitals treated up to 700 war-wounded patients in a week, and reported UN, ICRC and Médecins Sans Frontières concerns about shortages, disrupted maternity care, movement restrictions on community midwives, and attacks or damage affecting medical facilities. Al Jazeera’s 29 October report, citing OCHA, separately warned that aid access to Taiz was difficult and about 800,000 people were trapped in the city. Claims are attributed to the interviewee, medics, humanitarian agencies and the outlets; they do not constitute independent verification of every incident.
