Bu içerikte, ABD’nin Yemen’in başkenti Sanaa’ya hava saldırıları düzenlediği ve İran destekli Houthi militanların füze depolama alanı ve komuta tesislerini hedef aldığı belirtiliyor. Ayrıca, ABD Merkez Komutanlığı, Houthi dronlarını ve Kızıldeniz üzerindeki bir anti-gemi seyir füzesini vurduğunu açıkladı. Saldırıların, Houthis’in İsrail’e balistik bir füze fırlatmasının ardından gerçekleştiği ve Tel Aviv’deki bir parkta ondan fazla kişiyi yaraladığı belirtiliyor. Houthis’in, Filistinlilere dayanışma amacıyla Gazze savaşının başlamasının ardından İsrail’e ve uluslararası gemilere saldırdığı ve bu nedenle ABD’nin müdahalesinin hedefinde olduğu ifade ediliyor. Saldırılarda Amerikan F/A-18 Hornet savaş jetlerinin kullanıldığı ve ABD’nin, Houthi füzelerine karşı önlemler almayı sürdürdüğü belirtiliyor. Ayrıca, Houthis’in Kızıldeniz’de gemilere saldırılar düzenleyerek ABD, İngiltere ve diğer ülkelerin savaş gemilerine zarar verdiği bilgisi veriliyor. Son olarak, Houthis’in Gazze savaşı sona erene kadar saldırılarına devam edeceği ve ABD’nin kendisini ve müttefiklerini koruma taahhüdünün bir parçası olarak bu son saldırıyı gerçekleştirdiği belirtiliyor.

The US military says it has carried out a series of air strikes on the Yemeni capital Sanaa targeting a missile storage site and command facilities operated by Iran-backed Houthi militants.
US Central Command added it also hit multiple Houthi drones and an anti-ship cruise missile over the Red Sea.
It comes hours after the Houthis fired a ballistic missile at Israel which injured more than a dozen people in a Tel Aviv park.
The Houthis, an Iran-backed rebel group that controls north-western Yemen, began attacking Israel and international shipping shortly after the start of the Gaza war in October 2023, saying they were acting in solidarity with Palestinians.
In a statement, the US military’s Central Command said the strikes aimed to “disrupt and degrade Houthi operations, such as attacks against US Navy warships and merchant vessels in the Southern Red Sea, Bab al-Mandeb, and Gulf of Aden”.
The US military also said it struck “multiple Houthi one-way attack uncrewed aerial vehicles, or drones, and an anti-ship cruise missile over the Red Sea”.
American F/A-18 Hornet fighter jets were used in the operation, the US Central Command added.
Since November 2023, Houthi missile attacks have sunk two vessels in the Red Sea and damaged others. They have claimed, often falsely, that they are targeting ships only linked to Israel, the US or the UK.
Last December, the US, UK and 12 other nations launched Operation Prosperity Guardian to protect Red Sea shipping lanes against the attacks.
Houthi-run Al Masirah TV reported that nine people were killed in the port of Salif and the Ras Issa oil terminal.
The Houthis have vowed to continue their attacks until the war in Gaza ends. The US says its latest strike is part of a commitment to protect itself and its allies.
