Video shows aftermath of US strike on Yemen’s Hodeidah

The video published by the Houthi-affiliated Al Masirah TV shows the damage caused by a US attack on the building of the General Authority for Maritime Affairs in the port city of Hodeidah.

The footage shows bombed-out walls, broken windows and collapsed ceilings.

As we’ve been reporting, the Houthis say US forces carried out at least 29 attacks across Yemen on Saturday, killing at least three people in the capital, Sanaa.

The attacks come days after US forces bombed the Ras Isa fuel terminal on the Red Sea coast, killing at least 80 people and wounding more than 150 others.

The US has said its campaign against the Houthis is designed to protect international shipping vessels in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden from repeated attacks.




More US air strikes hit Yemen: Houthis

The Houthis’ Al Masirah TV says that US air strikes have hit Kamaran Island, off Yemen’s Red Sea coast, and al-Jubah district in eastern Yemen’s Marib governorate. No details on casualties were provided.

Houthi media outlets have reported that US air strikes have also hit the Yemeni capital Sanaa, after targeting Kamaran Island and Marib governorate earlier.

Houthi media outlets have reported that two US air strikes targeted the area of Attan in the Yemeni capital, which has been controlled by the rebel movement since 2014.

US air strikes also reportedly targeted a sanitation project in the Asir area, as well as the al-Farwah neighbourhood and a popular market in the Shoub district.

Three dead in US strikes on Sanaa: Houthis

The Houthi-run Saba News Agency says that three people have died in US strikes on Sanaa, and 12 people were injured. Video of the aftermath of the attacks has begun to emerge, with footage showing a light speeding through the sky before impact on the city.


At least 12 killed in US strikes on market in Sanaa: Houthis

The death toll from Sunday night’s US strikes on a market in the Yemeni capital Sanaa has risen to 12, the Houthis say. Thirty people were also injured in the strike on al-Farwah market and the wider al-Farwah area in Shoub district.

The Houthis’ Saba News Agency reported that rescue workers were still looking for people stuck under the rubble of buildings destroyed in the attack.

Separately, the Houthis have also reported US strikes in Saada governorate, in Yemen’s far north, near the Saudi border.
