US, UK jets attack Yemen's Hudaydah in support of Israel
US and British warplanes have bombed Yemen’s western coastal province of Hudaydah as part of their bid to stop Yemeni maritime operations against Israeli-affiliated vessels in the Red Sea.
Yemen's official Saba news agency, citing a security source speaking on condition of anonymity, reported that the aerial assaults targeted the al-Jabbaneh district on Thursday evening.
There were no immediate reports about the extent of damage caused. The US-British coalition has yet to comment on the strike.
The development came two days after US and British forces carried out two airstrikes on Yemen's southwestern province of Ta’izz.
Yemenis have declared their open support for Palestine’s struggle against the Israeli occupation since the regime launched a devastating war on Gaza on October 7 after the territory’s Palestinian resistance movements carried out a surprise retaliatory attack, dubbed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, against the occupying entity.
The Yemeni Armed Forces have said that they won’t stop their attacks until unrelenting Israeli ground and aerial offensives in Gaza end.
The Tel Aviv regime has so far killed at least 39,699 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injured 91,722 others, according to the Gaza-based health ministry.
The occupying entity has also imposed a “complete siege” on the territory, cutting off fuel, electricity, food, and water to the more than two million Palestinians living there.
Leader of the Ansarullah resistance movement Abdul-Malik al-Houthi has said it is “a great honor and blessing to be confronting America directly.”
The attacks have forced some of the world’s biggest shipping and oil companies to suspend transit through one of the world’s most important maritime trade routes. Tankers are instead adding thousands of miles to international shipping routes by sailing around the continent of Africa rather than going through the Suez Canal.
