Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen stated that the U.S. conducted 4 airstrikes on the city of Al-Hudaydah in the west of the country.
AIR STRIKE FROM THE U.S.
The Houthi-owned al-Masirah television announced that the U.S. carried out 4 airstrikes on the Al-Kasib area of the Al-Mina district of Hudaydah. The report did not provide information about the results of the attacks, and no statement was made by the U.S.
Meanwhile, the spokesperson for the Houthi government, Hashim Sharafuddin, stated in a written statement that U.S. President Donald Trump's threats against the Houthis would not prevent them from supporting Gaza.
Sharafuddin said, "Just as Israel claims to target only Hamas while actually targeting the entire Palestinian people, Trump also claims that they are only targeting the Houthis with attacks on Yemen. Trump's threat to eliminate the Houthis is a desperate attempt to justify the brutal attacks they are carrying out against Yemen."
Sharafuddin noted that the world knows that the U.S. harbors hatred against the Yemeni people because it defends the oppressed Palestinian people in Gaza and rejects the American-Zionist conspiracy that envisions the occupation of Arab countries.
WHAT HAPPENED?
On March 7, the Houthis announced that they had given Israel a 4-day deadline to allow aid into Gaza, otherwise they would resume naval operations against Israel.
U.S. President Donald Trump announced on March 15 via his Truth Social platform account that he had instructed the military to launch a "major attack" against the Houthis in Yemen.
The leader of the Houthis, Abdulmalik al-Houthi, stated that U.S. aircraft and warships would be targets for the Houthis, adding that as long as they continued their attacks, the disruptions in maritime operations would also affect Washington.
The Houthis reported that 53 people were killed and 107 were injured in airstrikes conducted by the U.S. and the U.K. in several cities, including the capital Sana.
