Pentagon Says It Targeted Houthis in U.S. Airstrikes That Followed Israeli Attacks on Yemen
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Pentagon says it launched a wave of airstrikes on Sana'a and other
parts of Yemen on Tuesday. U.S. Central Command says it targeted Houthi
command and weapons production facilities. The attacks came just after
Israel bombed the Yemeni port city of Hodeidah and the main airport in
Sana'a, killing at least six people. A Houthi spokesperson said
Wednesday the movement would continue attacks aimed at ending Israel's
assault on Gaza.

Yahya Sarea: "The Yemeni armed forces affirm their continued operations
in support of Gaza, and these operations will not stop until the
aggression on Gaza is stopped and the siege is lifted."
