Tuesday, April 22, 2025 - Yemen’s Huthis on Monday said that US air strikes on Sanaa killed no fewer than 12 people and injured at least 30, with a military spokesperson later claiming attacks on US aircraft carriers and Israel.
According to the Huthi-run Saba news agency, the dead and
injured had come from overnight strikes by the American enemy on a market and a
residential zone in Sanaa’s Farwa district.
The news agency said other raids were reported late Sunday
in the central province of Marib, Hodeida in the west and the Huthi bastion of
Saada in the north.
Huthi military spokesman Yahya Saree stated that the group
launched attacks on two US aircraft carriers in response to the latest deadly
American strikes.
He added that the Huthis also targeted two Israeli locations
with drones.
The US military has been carrying out almost daily attacks
for the past month, saying it was targeting the Iran-backed Huthi terrorists to
stop attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.
According to the Huthis, one attack on Thursday on the Ras
Issa oil port killed some 80 people and injured 150.
On Saturday, UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said that
he was gravely concerned by the US strikes.
He also called on the Huthis to stop missile attacks on
Israel and Red Sea shipping.
The Huthis said they started missile attacks in solidarity
with Hamas as it fights Israeli forces in Gaza.
Recall that US raids started in January 2024 but have been
stepped up since President Donald Trump took office this year.
