US, UK conduct airstrikes against targets in Yemen for third consecutive day
American and British forces have conducted a fresh round of joint airstrikes against targets in Yemen, hours after two school girls were killed and several others injured following a joint US-British aerial attack on an educational center in the same Yemeni province.
Yemen’s Arabic-language al-Masirah television network, citing a security source speaking on condition of anonymity, reported that two airstrikes targeted al-Kanab area in the Maqbanah district of Yemen’s southwestern province of Ta’izz early on Wednesday.
No further details were immediately available.
The attack came just a day after two girls lost their lives and seven others sustained injuries when US and UK military aircraft carried out a strike against a school in the al-Jund area of At-Ta'iziyah district in the same province.
Lebanon's al-Mayadeen television network, citing local sources, said the school was hit by two missiles.
Similarly, American and British warplanes launched an aerial assault against the Jabanah area in Yemen’s strategic western province of Hudaydah on Monday.
Yemenis have declared their open support for Palestine’s struggle against the Israeli occupation since the regime launched a devastating war on Gaza on October 7, 2023, after the territory’s Palestinian resistance movements carried out a surprise retaliatory attack, dubbed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, against the occupying entity.
The Yemeni Armed Forces have said that they won’t stop their attacks until unrelenting Israeli ground and aerial offensives in Gaza end.
The Israeli regime has had in place a near-total siege on the coastal territory, which has reduced to a trickle of foodstuffs, medicine, electricity, and water into the Palestinian territory.
So far, Israel has killed at least 41,020 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injured 94,925 others.
Leader of the Ansarullah resistance movement Abdul-Malik al-Houthi has said it is “a great honor and blessing to be confronting America directly.”
The attacks have forced some of the world’s biggest shipping and oil companies to suspend transit through one of the world’s most important maritime trade routes. Tankers are instead adding thousands of miles to international shipping routes by sailing around the continent of Africa rather than going through the Suez Canal.
