ALBAWABA- A new wave of U.S. airstrikes struck multiple regions across Yemen late Sunday night, killing at least 12 people and injuring over 30, according to Houthi officials.
More than 30 airstrikes were reported across the capital Sana'a and the provinces of Ma’rib, Hodeida, Sa’dah, Kamaran Island, Amran, Hajjah, and Al-Mahwit.
In Sana’a alone, six strikes targeted the neighborhoods of Attan, Aser, and Shaub, where the Houthis say a market in the Farwa district was hit. Sa’dah province witnessed six strikes, four near the city and two in Sahar.
Five strikes hit Kamaran Island off the western coast near Hodeida, while Ma’rib, Hajjah, and Amran were also heavily bombarded, underscoring the geographic breadth of the attack.
These latest bombings come just days after what is now considered the deadliest U.S. strike in Yemen this year—an attack last Thursday that killed at least 76 people, mostly laborers and drivers, at the strategic port of Ras Isa.
The Biden-initiated campaign, now continued under President Trump’s second term, is facing mounting scrutiny both internationally and domestically.
Further controversy erupted as Reuters reported a major security breach involving Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who allegedly leaked classified information about upcoming U.S. strikes in Yemen to a private Signal chat with his wife, brother, and personal lawyer—raising serious concerns about the handling of wartime intelligence at the highest levels of the U.S. administration.
