Sanaa: The Houthi-run Health Ministry has said that the overnight US strikes killed at least 53 people, including five women and two children, and wounded more than 100 people in Yemeni state capital Sanaa, media reported.
The US has escalated its strikes against Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis, with President Donald Trump vowing on Saturday to use ‘overwhelming lethal force’ against the rebels who have attacked international ships in the Red Sea in ‘solidarity’ with Gaza.
Multiple US strikes in Yemen’s capital Sanaa and other areas have resulted in numerous casualties with the militants also vowing escalation as they face one of the most extensive attacks since the war in Gaza began in October 2023
The US conducted overnight airstrikes on multiple targets in Yemen starting around midnight on Sunday, targeting the capital Sanaa, and other places, including the Houthi stronghold province of Sadaa.
Trump said that the Houthis must stop their attacks on international ships in the Red Sea, one of the busiest shipping routes in the world.
