The United States and Britain renew their strikes against Yemen
At dawn on Thursday, the United States and Britain renewed their strikes against Yemen, targeting the governorates of Hodeidah, Taiz, Dhamar, al Bayda, and Saada, according to what was reported by the Saba agency in Sanaa.
The US-British attack began with raids on the governorates of Hodeidah and Dhamar, then extended to include the governorates of Saada, Taiz, and al Bayda, with spy planes flying in the west of the country.
The attacks targeted Jabal al Sama, west of the city of Saada, and the Takhiya area in the Majz District of Saada, as well as the military police south of Dhamar, and the Technical Institute in the al Sawma District in al Bayda.
According to Yemeni sources, the US-British attack has so far targeted 5 Yemeni governorates, explaining that there is nothing new in tonight’s bombing in terms of targets that were previously bombed.
This new aggression comes as the fourth attack launched by the United States on Yemen in less than a week, according to what the CBS news reported, quoting a US official.
This attack took place after Washington listed the Yemeni “Ansar Allah” group as a “global terrorist organization,” which reinforces Washington’s continued support for Israel in its brutal war, according to what the Supreme Political Council in Yemen confirmed.
While the US Department of Defense claimed that “Washington and London’s strikes succeeded in undermining” the capabilities of the Yemeni armed forces, it acknowledged that “the attempt at deterrence has not succeeded so far,” stressing that “waiting for a retaliatory response from Yemen”.
The Yemeni Navy announced on Wednesday that it had carried out a targeting operation against an American ship in the Gulf of Aden using naval missiles, stressing that the hit was accurate and direct.
For its part, the US Central Command announced that a drone launched from Yemen targeted a ship in the Gulf of Aden, flying the flag of the Marshall Islands, and owned and operated by the United States.
