US military carries out more strikes on Yemen: Report

Houthi-run news channel Al Masirah TV reports that the US military has carried out five raids in the province of Hodeidah, striking a cotton processing plant in Zabid.

It’s the fifth night in a row the US military has carried out strikes on Yemen, after resuming its attacks against the Houthis over the weekend in response to the Iran-backed group’s operations targeting Israeli-linked ships in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden.

The US strikes have killed dozens of people so far, as fears grow of a new cycle of violence in the conflict-torn country.

The US military’s Central Command (CENTCOM) said on Wednesday it was continuing “24/7 operations” against the Houthis in a post on X but did not confirm its latest attacks.

Air attack alerts sounded in several parts of the country as the missile approached Israel’s borders, the military said, adding that the attempted strike is “being examined”.

The Associated Press news agency reports that explosion were heard during the operation to intercept the missile.
