3 Injured in New U.S. Airstrikes on Sana'a and Saada - Jordan News
Three people were injured on Thursday following U.S. airstrikes targeting the Yemeni provinces of Sana'a and Saada, marking another escalation in the ongoing conflict. اضافة اعلان According to a statement from the Ministry of Health of the Houthi-led (unrecognized) government, 'A citizen was injured in an airstrike on Al-Jiraf Al-Sharqi neighborhood in the capital Sana'a, and residential homes in the northern Bir Zaid area were damaged.' In Saada Governorate, located in northern Yemen, 'one person was wounded in airstrikes on Al-Salim District, and another was injured in the Sahar District,' the Houthi-run SABA News Agency reported. The ministry condemned what it called the 'continued U.S. aggression targeting residential areas,' describing it as a 'flagrant violation of international humanitarian law.' It also called on the international community to take urgent action to stop what it referred to as 'these crimes.' As of 07:40 GMT, no official U.S. statement had been released regarding the strikes. On Wednesday evening, U.S. warplanes reportedly launched six airstrikes on the Sahlin area in Al-Salim District, Saada. Since March 15, the Anadolu Agency has recorded nearly 1,000 U.S. airstrikes in Yemen, resulting in 217 civilian deaths and 436 injuries, mostly among women and children, according to Houthi sources. These figures do not include Houthi fighters. The air campaign began following orders from U.S. President Donald Trump to launch a 'major offensive' against the Houthi movement, with threats to 'completely eliminate' the group. The Houthis, however, have largely disregarded Trump's threats and resumed attacks on Israeli targets and Red Sea-bound vessels, saying these were in retaliation for Israel's renewed military operations in Gaza since March 18. With full U.S. support, Israel has been accused of committing genocide in Gaza since October 7, 2023, resulting in over 168,000 Palestinian casualties, mostly women and children, and more than 11,000 missing, according to local health authorities.

US warplanes carry out 2nd airstrike of the day on Yemen's Saada
US warplanes carried out airstrikes on Saada city in northern Yemen on early Sunday, targeting a shop and a nearby house, Houthi-affiliated media reported. Al-Masirah TV channel reported via its Telegram channel that "American aggressive forces" conducted four airstrikes targeting the Hafsin neighborhood in the west of Saada city. The airstrikes also targeted a store selling solar panels and equipment, as well as a nearby house. The report said civil defense teams are working to extinguish fires and retrieve victims from the rubble following the attack but did not provide any additional information. Earlier in the day, US aircraft had carried out two other airstrikes on the Kahlan area of Saada city, according to the Houthi-affiliated SABA News Agency, which also did not provide additional information. The Houthi sources did not specify whether there were any casualties or offer further details about the attacks. Last month, US President Donald Trump said that he had ordered "decisive and powerful military action" against the Houthis and later threatened to "completely annihilate them." The Houthis have targeted ships passing through the Red and Arabian seas, the Bab al-Mandab Strait, and the Gulf of Aden since November 2023 in solidarity with Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, where more than 50,600 people have been killed in a brutal Israeli assault. The group halted attacks when a Gaza ceasefire was declared in January between Israel and the Palestinian group Hamas but resumed them after renewed Israeli airstrikes on Gaza last month.
