The US military says it has launched strikes on the
Iranian-backed Houthi group in Yemen, hitting 15 targets.
The Pentagon said it used aircrafts and warships to
launch the attacks in order "to protect freedom of
navigation".
Several explosions were reported in some of Yemen’s
main cities, including the capital Sanaa.
Since November, the Houthis have launched attacks
on around 100 ships in the Red Sea, sinking two vessels.
The rebel group says the attacks are retaliation for
Israel's military campaign in Gaza.

Israel launched a pretty good attack on the Houthi
earlier in the week - hitting port facilities and
two power plants.
The Houthi have become like Hamas and Hez - always
firing rockets into Israel. They have also made
the use of the Red sea very risky, a huge trade
problem. They have hit many vessels, and fired on
US Navy ships too.
The Houthi are major clients/proxies of Iran.
