US, UK Conduct Fresh Aerial Strikes on Yemen's Hudaydah
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The US and the UK launched three airstrikes on Yemen's western city of Hudaydah, targeting the al-Jabana area, home to an air defense camp, according to Yemen's al-Masirah television channel on Wednesday night.
The report did not provide any details regarding potential casualties or damage.
In recent months, the US and its allies have been bombing Yemen, which critics say violates the country’s sovereignty and international law.
These illegal air raids are reportedly in response to Yemen's maritime campaign in support of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
As part of the pro-Palestine campaign, Yemeni forces have targeted ships traveling to and from ports in the occupied territories or owned by entities linked to Israel in the southern Red Sea, the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, the Gulf of Aden, and even the Arabian Sea.
They have also attacked American and British vessels in these waters.
Regional tensions have heightened since Israel, with US backing, launched a war on Gaza on October 7 following a significant operation by the Palestinian resistance groups against the occupying regime.
To date, the Tel Aviv regime has killed at least 37,202 Palestinians, predominantly women and children, and injured 84,932 others in the besieged Gaza Strip.
