The US military has conducted a series of airstrikes in Sanaa, Yemen, targeting missile storage sites and command facilities of Iran-backed Houthi militants. This move follows recent Houthi missile attacks on Israel, injuring several civilians. US Central Command stated the airstrikes aimed to disrupt Houthi operations posing threats to US Navy ships and international shipping in the region. The escalation signifies the Houthis’ ongoing influence and their claimed solidarity with Palestinians amid the Gaza conflict.
