U.S. warplanes launched airstrikes on eastern Sa'ada province in northern Yemen, targeting multiple areas and causing civilian casualties, Yemeni media reported.

Why it matters:

The attacks come amid continued U.S. and U.K. military operations against Yemen, which began in support of the Zionist regime following the escalation in Gaza. The strikes have intensified tensions in the region, drawing strong condemnation from Yemen.

 

Details:

  • The U.S. carried out airstrikes on Sa'ada’s eastern areas and the Ras Issa region in Al-Salif, Hodeidah, killing one Yemeni citizen and injuring another.
  • American warplanes also struck a vehicle in the Qahaza area of Bilad Al-Rus in Sana’a province and targeted Yemen’s communication network in Jabal Nama, Ibb province, leading to another martyrdom.
  • Since March 15, 2024, the U.S. and the U.K. have been conducting airstrikes against Yemen, targeting residential and civilian infrastructure under the pretext of supporting the Zionist regime.

 

Go deeper:

Yemen’s Armed Forces have vowed to continue their operations against U.S. aggression and to block Israeli-linked vessels from passing through regional waters until the full cessation of attacks on Gaza and the lifting of its blockade is realized.
