Ansarullah Leader Says 37 Killed, 30 Wounded in 3 Months of US, UK Strikes on Yemen

"American and British aggressors have carried out 424 airstrikes and shelling from the sea in three months. As a result of the American-British aggression, 37 people have been killed and 30 have been wounded," Al-Houthi said in a televised appearance on the Al-Masirah broadcaster.

He added that the US and the UK have demonstrated their "inability to prevent or limit operations, and the Yemeni armed forces have achieved very important results".

Al-Houthi further said Yemen's armed forces have carried out 34 operations against the US, the UK and Israel in one month alone, having fired 125 ballistic and cruise missiles and drones, and the total number of ships attacked in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden has amounted to 90 since the beginning of Yemen’s operations in support of Palestinians in Gaza.

Al-Houthi said last week the movement had attacked 86 ships affiliated with Israel, the US and the UK since last November in support of the Palestinians.

Yemen vowed in November 2023 to attack any ships associated with Israel until it halts military actions in the besieged Gaza Strip.

This in turn led the US, the UK and the European Union to announce a multinational operation to secure navigation in the Red Sea. US and UK forces have launched numerous strikes against Yemen positions in a bid to degrade their ability to target commercial vessels.
