On Sunday night, at least eight people lost their lives as U.S. airstrikes hit key areas of Sanaa, Yemen. U.S. fighter jets targeted homes in the Bani Al-Harith district of northern Sanaa, leaving dozens wounded and emergency crews scrambling to find survivors under the rubble.
Nearly 20 airstrikes have been reported across northern Yemen, including the capital, with similar incidents occurring a day earlier in both southern and northern Sanaa that resulted in additional casualties. These strikes are part of ongoing operations that, according to U.S. Central Command, aim to target Houthi leadership.
The renewed wave of airstrikes comes amid escalating tensions in the region, as efforts continue to deter threats to international shipping and security in the Red and Arabian Seas. It’s a tough reminder of how rapidly events can change in today’s interconnected world. 😟
