Ah good, that accounts for 1 out of the 33 articles about Yemen written since the US and Israel started indiscriminately bombing the country for daring to act against their genocide of Palestine, the rest of which are criticizing "the Huthi de facto authorities" (i.e. the legitimate government of Yemen) for various perceived infractions.
And of course, the headline is not about any of the strikes on residential apartment blocks or civilian airports or seaports, but about hitting a migrant detention facility, so that the article can go on to spend half its length complaining about "the Huthi de facto authorities" and their detainment of migrants, their 'restrictions on independent investigation', and their 'crackdown on civic spaces'.
The takeaway of the article, which pervades its entire language and tone, is that the US military needs to more carefully select and investigate its targets when bombing foreign countries, so that they only kill and destroy 'legitimate military targets' and don't accidentally harm the poor innocents who these tyrannical foreign brutes are already terrorizing, implicitly suggesting the US is somehow a thoughtful moral actor that gives even a single fuck about killing civilians, and that its enemies do actually deserve to be murdered but only in the right way with cleaner, more nuanced weaponry.
They get all the support they need from the NED and CIA, what I want is for them to write NO reports so I never have to see another mealy-mouthed, wounded innocence "speaking truth to power" shitsmear of lies and insinuations against whoever dares to resist the will of the US State Department, when the overwhelming majority of human rights violations in the world today are very very clearly committed by the US Empire and its global proxy forces.
