The United States reportedly launched a fresh wave of attacks against alleged militant targets across Yemen on Wednesday night, just hours after Washington designated the Houthi rebel group as a terrorist organization.
The missile salvo was fired from US Navy ships stationed in the Red Sea and targeted sites that were “prepared to launch attacks,” CBS News and the Associated Press reported, citing unnamed US officials. Over a dozen locations were said to have been hit in the strikes.
The operation follows a Houthi strike against a US-owned bulk carrier ship Genco Picardy in the Gulf of Aden earlier on Wednesday, with militant group spokesman Yahya Sarea claiming a “direct hit” on the cargo vessel.
“The naval forces will not hesitate to target all sources of threat in the Red and Arabian sea within the legitimate right to defend Yemen and to continue supporting the oppressed Palestinian people,” he added.
