Houthi-affiliated media reports new US attacks on Yemen

The Houthi-affiliated Al Masirah TV is reporting that US air raids have continued across Yemen overnight.

The latest attacks included 10 air strikes on the al-Hazm district in Yemen’s al-Jawf governorate and five air strikes on the Majzar district of Marib governorate, according to Al Masirah.

The US launched an intensified campaign of air strikes on Yemen last month in what it says is an effort to deter Houthi attacks on ships in the Red Sea. The Houthis have continued with their attacks, saying they will only stop once Israel’s war on Gaza ends.

In a post on Telegram, Israel’s military says it has identified a missile heading towards Israel from Yemen that has set sirens off across the country.

Yemen’s Houthi rebels have frequently waged attacks on Israel during the war in Gaza, acting out of what they say is solidarity with Palestinians in the enclave.
