We show you our most important and recent visitors news details At least 12 killed in fresh US air strikes on Yemen capital Sanaa, Houthis say in the following article
Hind Al Soulia - Riyadh - SANAA — At least 12 people have been killed and 30 others wounded in a US air strike on Yemen's capital, the Houthis rebels have said.
The deaths mark the latest in Washington's intensified campaign of strikes targeting the Iran-backed rebels.
The US military's Central Command declined to answer questions about the strike or discuss civilian casualties from its campaign.
The Houthis described the strike as hitting the Farwa neighborhood market in Sanaa's Shuub district. That area has been targeted before by US forces.
Footage aired by the Houthis' al-Masirah satellite news channel showed damage to vehicles and buildings in the area, with screaming onlookers holding what appeared to be a dead child.
Others wailed on stretchers heading into a hospital.
Strikes overnight into Monday also hit other areas of the country, including the governates of Amran, Hodeida, Marib and Saada.
The strikes come after US aerial attacks hit the Ras Isa port last week, killing at least 74 people and wounding 171 others in what appeared to be the deadliest such incident since President Donald Trump launched a new military campaign against the rebels last month..
The strikes follow the resumption of talks in Rome between the US and Iran over Tehran’s rapidly advancing nuclear program, which Washington has linked to its attacks in Yemen.
The US says it is targeting the Houthis because of the group's attacks on shipping in the Red Sea, a crucial global trade route, and on Israel.
The Houthis are the last militant group in Iran's self-described "Axis of Resistance" that is capable of regularly attacking Israel.
The fresh campaign started after the rebels threatened to begin targeting "Israeli" ships again over Israel blocking aid from entering the Gaza Strip.
From November 2023 until this January, the Houthis targeted more than 100 merchant vessels with missiles and drones, sinking two of them and killing four sailors.
That has greatly reduced the flow of trade through the Red Sea corridor, which typically sees $1 trillion (€880 billion) of goods move through it.
The Houthis also launched attacks targeting American warships without success.
Assessing the toll of the month-old US airstrike campaign has been difficult because the military hasn't released information about the attacks, including what was targeted and how many people were killed.
The Houthis, meanwhile, strictly control access to attacked areas and don't publish complete information on the strikes, many of which likely have targeted military and security sites. — Euronews
