Houthis claim US, British strikes targeted Yemen’s Hodeidah airport
Houthis’ Al-Masirah TV reports that US and British airstrikes have targeted Yemen’s Hodeidah airport.
There was no immediate comment from US or British officials.
Earlier, the US vowed to hold Yemen’s Houthi rebels accountable for a strike on a bulk carrier that killed two, apparently the first fatalities in the Iran-backed rebel group’s attacks on shipping.
“We will continue to hold them accountable. We call on governments around the world to do the same,” State Department spokesman Matthew Miller told reporters.
