CAIRO — Iran-backed Houthis on Sunday raided offices of the United Nations' food, health and children's agencies in Yemen's capital, detaining several U.N. employees, officials said. The rebels tightened security across Sanaa following the Israeli killing of their prime minister and several Cabinet members.

Abeer Etefa, a spokesperson for the World Food Program, told The Associated Press that security forces raided the agencies' offices Sunday morning in the Houthi-controlled capital of Sanaa. She said at least one staffer was detained in the city and others reportedly detained in other areas.

Also raided were offices of the World Health Organization and UNICEF, according to a U.N. official and a Houthi official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
