US, allies escalate strikes on Houthi targets after attack surge
The US, UK and allies hit 18 Houthi sites and eight locations as Pentagon warns of further action.
Los Angeles | The US and its allies struck multiple targets in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen on Saturday, responding to increased attacks on commercial shipping in the Red Sea region by the Iran-backed militant group.
The strikes on 18 Houthi sites at eight locations were the broadest announced since February 3, providing new evidence that the Yemen-based militants are engaging the US and its allies in an extended battle.
