US Resumes Airstrikes in Yemen Amid Rising Tensions

US Resumes Airstrikes in Yemen Amid Rising Tensions

Recent airstrikes on Sana’a and Al-Bayda lead to civilian injuries as the conflict escalates following missile attacks on Israel.
The United States has resumed airstrikes in Yemen’s capital, Sana’a, targeting a function hall under construction and a residential neighborhood in the Al-Thawra district.

Reports indicate that at least seven women and two children were injured in the attacks.

Videos from the area depict massive flames and destruction, with significant damage observed at the targeted locations.

In addition to Sana’a, strikes were reported in Al-Bayda Governorate, located in central Yemen.

Over the past five days, U.S. military actions in Yemen have intensified, reportedly resulting in hundreds of casualties and extensive damage to infrastructure across the region.

This escalation follows a statement from U.S. President Donald Trump, declaring a commitment to 'crush' the Houthi movement due to their backing of Gaza and their blockade on vessels heading towards Israel.

In a broader context, the U.S. airstrikes coincide with heightened tensions following the launch of a hypersonic ballistic missile by the Houthis targeting Israel's Nevatim Air Base.

The Houthis claimed the missile successfully hit its target, framing the attack as a retaliation for ongoing violence in Gaza.

The Israeli military confirmed the interception of the missile, which occurred after Israel resumed military operations in Gaza, resulting in significant casualties, including over 400 deaths, among them 150 children.

Simultaneously, the Houthis had previously adhered to a ceasefire agreement brokered by Qatar and Egypt but resumed hostilities in response to Israel's renewed military aggression.

Following these developments, the U.S. military's actions appear aimed at applying pressure on the Houthis to cease their support for Gaza and ensure maritime security in the region.

Contrary to claims regarding maritime safety, these actions raise questions regarding the underlying motives of the United States in the ongoing conflict.

The recent airstrikes have caused widespread civilian injuries and are part of a broader U.S. military strategy aimed at targeting Houthi-controlled territories.

As the situation develops, both humanitarian concerns and geopolitical implications continue to unfold in this complex conflict.
