SANAA, Yemen (AA) - The Houthi group reported five new US and British airstrikes that targeted Al Hudaydah province in Yemen.
The strikes targeted Ras Issa in the Salif district, according to Houthi-run Al-Masirah television.
No information was provided about casualties or damage.
There has been no comment from the US or UK.
Al Hudaydah is a major province with three vital ports and a long coastal strip.
Since the beginning of 2024, a coalition led by the US has been conducting airstrikes that it said are targeting Houthi locations in Yemen in response to attacks by the group on shipping in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.
Counterattacks have been occasionally met with retaliation from the group.
The Houthis have targeted Israeli cargo ships or those associated with Tel Aviv in the Red Sea with missiles and drones in solidarity with the Gaza Strip, which is facing a devastating Israeli offensive.
With the intervention of Washington and London and an escalation of tensions, the Houthis announced that they now consider all American and British ships military targets.
