US Airstrikes Hit Houthi Strongholds as Campaign Enters 10th Day 

By The Media Line Staff 

US airstrikes on Houthi rebels in Yemen continued on Monday, targeting key sites in the capital city of Sanaa. The Houthis reported that at least one person was killed and more than 10 were wounded in the attack, which marked the 10th day of the US campaign. 

The US military has not issued a statement on the casualties. 

Just one day earlier, US airstrikes targeted a residential building in Sanaa, reportedly killing one and injuring 13 others. The Houthi-controlled health authorities reported that three children and two women were among the wounded. 

The airstrikes are part of a broader campaign by the US to target the Houthi movement, which has posed a threat to maritime trade routes and launched attacks against American and Israeli targets. The escalation in violence comes after the Houthis launched new strikes on both Israeli and US military assets, including the USS Harry S. Truman. US President Donald Trump has vowed to “completely annihilate” the Houthis. 

US national security adviser Mike Waltz said on Sunday that the American strikes have successfully hit Houthi leadership and military facilities, including missile sites and drone production hubs. The Houthis, however, have downplayed their losses and continue to threaten further attacks on Israeli vessels in a show of solidarity with the Palestinian cause, a stance they have maintained since last year. 

Houthi ballistic missiles aimed at Israel in recent days have set off air raid sirens throughout the country but have not caused meaningful damage.
