Houthi Movement Says U.S.-U.K. Strikes Killed 16 in Yemen's Hodeidah
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Yemen's Houthi movement said joint U.S.-British strikes killed 16 people
and injured 40 others in Hodeidah province Thursday. The U.S.
acknowledged launching 13 strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen as
Houthi fighters have intensified attacks on freight vessels in the Red
Sea and Gulf of Aden, including an attack earlier today on the USS
Eisenhower aircraft carrier. The Houthi movement is vowing to continue
its maritime strikes as long as Israel's war on Gaza is ongoing.
