Fresh wave of US airstrikes reported in Yemen
At least 10 US strikes have targeted areas in Yemen, including Sanaa, the capital, and Hodeidah, Yemen’s Houthi media reports.
The US has in recent days launched a wave of strikes in areas of Yemen controlled by the Iran-aligned Houthis, who said last week they were resuming attacks on Red Sea shipping to support Palestinians in Gaza.
The Houthis on Tuesday claimed a ballistic missile attack on Israel’s Nevatim air base, and threatened to expand attacks if renewed fighting in Gaza did not halt.
According to Israel’s military, the Houthi missile was shot down by the long-range Arrow air defense system over Saudi Arabia.
