An official of Yemen’s Houthi group Ansarullah says that there were no injuries in the latest strike by the US against Houthi forces in Sana’a, and vowed a “strong and effective” response.

“There were no injuries, no material nor human losses,” Nasruldeen Amer tells Al Jazeera.

The US-led strikes on targets linked to the Iran-backed group were launched in response to a recent campaign of drone and missile attacks on commercial ships in the vital Red Sea.
