The Houthi-affiliated Al Masirah TV says three air raids have struck the city of Saada and four more hit the neighbouring Al-Salem district in northwestern Yemen.
US bombs Yemen’s Sanaa, Saada: Report
The Houthi-affiliated Al Masirah TV is reporting more US attacks on Yemen.
It said US forces launched two more attacks on the city of Saada and bombed the Al-Asayed area in the Kitaf district of the northern Saada province twice.
It also reported two raids on the Bani Maadh area of the Sahar district in Saada.
US forces also renewed attacks on the province of Sanaa, the channel said, launching three raids near Mount Nab Shuaib in the Bani Matar district.
Houthi official says US strikes achieved nothing except killing civilians
Mahdi al-Mashat, head of the Houthi Supreme Political Council, plays down the effect of the US attacks on the Yemeni group’s military capabilities.
“From the first strike until today, the Americans have achieved nothing except killing children, women and civilians and targeting civil officials,” al-Mashat said.
He reiterated that the Houthis will continue their attacks against Israel and shipping lanes in the Red Sea until the war on Gaza ends.
The Trump administration has intensified US attacks against the Houthis, launching strikes in Yemen almost daily, and claimed that the attacks had targeted Houthi leaders.
The US president had promised that the group would be “completely annihilated”.
