The US has launched air strikes against various targets in Yemen at night, including the Province of Sada, which sources are said to be an old hiding place of Humhis leaders, and the Red Sea’s Hodeidah port city, Houthi said on Wednesday (19).
Al Masirah TV, administered by the Houthis, reported more than 10 attacks at various locations, including the Al-Safra district in Sada. The district, which houses weapon storage and training locations, is considered one of the group’s most important and strongly fortified military strongholds, according to Yemeni sources.
After weeks of relative calm on the Red Sea sea routes after the ceasefire in Gaza in January, the Houthis, aligned with Iran, warned March 12 that would resume attacks on Israeli vessels in response to the closure of Gaza’s crossings by Israel.
US President Donald Trump threatened to blame Iran for any future attacks, warning about severe consequences.
Despite the US pressure, the Houthis led by Abdul Malik al-Houthi refused to reduce attacks on the Red Sea. The group has launched several attacks on international ships in what they say they are in solidarity with the Palestinians in the Gaza War.
On Tuesday (18), the Houthis said they would expand their targets in Israel in the next few hours and days, unless the “aggression” against Gaza ceased.
The group claimed that it attacked an Israeli air base with a ballistic missile without providing evidence.
Military spokesman Hurti, Yahya Sarea, without evidence, said the group successfully attacked USS Harry S. Truman and other US war ships with missiles and drones, frustrating US attack.
