US carries out more aggression against Yemen
The United States carries out more airstrikes in different areas in Yemen, as Washington presses ahead with its aggression against the Arab country.
The capital Sana’a was the main focus of fresh American strikes on Monday morning.
Several US air raids targeted the Bani Matar and Bani Hushaysh districts of Sana’a.
The Bani Al-Harith district was another target of US strikes.
American airstrikes on a commercial area in Sana’a’s Shu’ab District damaged a number of shops.
According to Yemen’s Health Ministry, fourteen citizens were injured as a result of the American aggression against the commercial district.
The northwestern city of Sa’ada was also targeted with three US air raids.
More American airstrikes hit two districts in Yemen’s Ma’rib and al-Jawf governorates.
US National Security Council spokesperson James Hewitt said the United States military has launched “over 1,000 strikes” on Yemen, and will continue the attacks in coordination with Israel.
The strikes followed a successful Yemeni missile strike on the occupied territories, which hit Israel’s Ben Gurion airport, causing the facility’s activities to come to a standstill.
Eight people were injured, according to paramedics.
The Israeli military confirmed its defense system failed to shoot down the hypersonic ballistic missile on Sunday despite several attempts to intercept it.
Yemeni forces said on Saturday that they had carried out a fourth missile strike within 24 hours against Israeli-occupied territories, leading to the activation of air raid sirens across multiple locations.
Yemen’s Armed Forces spokesman, Brigadier General Yahya Saree, confirmed in a statement that Sana’a targeted an Israeli military position south of Tel Aviv in a retaliatory operation early Saturday morning.
Since March 15, the administration of US President Donald Trump has launched daily airstrikes on Yemen and claims to have struck more than 1,000 targets in the Arab country.
The campaign aims to halt the Yemeni military’s strikes on Israeli and Israeli-linked vessels in Red Sea shipping lanes as well as their operations that have been hitting targets deep within the occupied Palestinian territories.
