US carries out new strike in Yemen after Biden vows to keep pressure on
WASHINGTON/ADEN: The United States carried out an additional strike against Yemen’s Houthi forces on Friday, two officials told Reuters, after President Joe Biden’s administration vowed to protect shipping in the Red Sea.
The latest strike, which one of the US officials said targeted a radar site, came a day after dozens of US and British strikes on the Iran-backed group’s facilities.
The officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity, did not provide more details. Radar infrastructure has been a key target in the US military effort to halt Houthi attacks in the Red Sea.
The Houthi movement’s television channel Al-Masirah reported that the United States and Britain were targeting the Yemeni capital Sanaa with raids.
Intensifying concerns about a widening regional conflict, US and British warplanes, ships and submarines on Thursday launched missiles against targets across Yemen controlled by the group, which has cast its maritime campaign as support for Palestinians under siege by Israel in Hamas-ruled Gaza.
