Yemen’s largest city crossword clue
10 Down · WSJ Crossword, July 15, 2026 · 5 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Yemen’s largest city” is SANAA. It appears as 10 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 15, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Drop Dead Gorgeous” by Zachary David Levy, and it fills 5 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 11 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with S and ends with A, and contains 3 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
