[ad_1] Comment on this story Comment Add to your saved stories Save Houthi militants vowed Friday to retaliate against dozens of U.S. and British strikes on their positions in Yemen, a threat that provoked fears of further escalation in the seething Middle East. Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree said the overnight strikes would not go “unpunished or unanswered.” In a video message Friday, he said the action would not deter the Iran-back militant group from continuing to target ships in the Red Sea to protest Israel’s military campaign against Hamas. “The American and British enemy bears full responsibility for its criminal aggression against the Yemeni people,” he said. The strikes, which President Biden said were necessary to protect the key trade route after 27 attacks on international commercial shipping, hit more than 60 targets in Yemen, including air defenses, munitions depots and rocket-launching sites, U.S. officials said.

[ad_1] The Supreme Court’s affirmative action ruling will have far-reaching consequences for Black and Latino students hoping to attend medical school and, in turn, only worsen the health disparities among people of color across the country, experts said. After the high court’s ruling Thursday struck down affirmative action programs at the University of North Carolina and Harvard , many fear that medical and nursing schools and other professional institutions will no longer be able to foster diversity by considering race in their admissions processes. The decision will result in fewer Black physicians and more racial bias in the medical field, said Dr. Uché Blackstock, a physician who is the founder of Advancing Health Equity .  “Fewer Black health professionals means less culturally responsive and equitable care for Black patients,” she said. “Also, the lack of Black representation among Black health professionals is a problem for younger generations since ‘you can’t be what you
