Yemen’s Houthi media reports heavy US airstrikes on Sanaa
Yemeni rebel media says more than a dozen airstrikes have hit the Houthi-held capital Sanaa today, blaming them on the United States.
Rebel-held areas of Yemen have endured near-daily strikes, blamed on the United States, since Washington launched an air campaign against the Houthis on March 15 in an attempt to end their threats to shipping in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, which they claim is in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza.
“Fourteen airstrikes carried out by American aggression hit the Al-Hafa area in the Al-Sabeen district in the capital,” the Houthis’ Al-Masirah TV reports.
It also reports strikes blamed on the United States in the Hazm area of Jawf province.
