Iran denies reports of casualties in US airstrike on Yemen
No Iranian personnel were killed in a recent US airstrike on Yemen, which is known to have close ties to the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC).
The statement came in response to a claim made by Yemen's Minister of Information, Moammar al-Eryani, who posted on social media platform X on Friday that 70 members of the Houthi group -- including senior field commanders and Iranian experts from the IRGC -- were killed in a US strike on Tuesday.
The attack reportedly targeted a Houthi gathering in Al-Fazah, a coastal area in the Red Sea port city of Hodeidah.
