US airstrikes kill six in Yemen as regional tensions rise

US airstrikes in Yemen’s Sanaa province killed six people and injured more than a dozen, according to Al Masirah media.

Additional raids reportedly hit al-Yatmah in al-Jawf governorate. The Houthis said they downed a US MQ-9 drone over Hajjah using a locally made missile, though the US has not commented.

Washington began its air campaign on March 15, targeting the group over attacks on Red Sea shipping. On Sunday, the Houthis also claimed a missile strike on Israel’s Ashdod port and Ben Gurion Airport. The group has linked its operations to the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
