"Two people were killed and another injured after the American enemy targeted a house" in a neighborhood in south Sanaa, the group's official Saba news agency said.

"Nine others were injured, including two women and three children, in the American aggression on a residential area in the west of Al-Rawda," another district of the Yemeni capital, according to the same source.

On Saturday evening, the AFP correspondent in Sanaa reported hearing violent explosions.

The Houthis, who control large parts of war-torn Yemen, also reported strikes in other parts of the country, including their stronghold Saada in the north.

They said the fuel port of Ras Issa in the western Hodeida region -- where they reported 80 people killed in strikes just over a week ago -- had also been hit.

The Houthis have regularly launched missiles and drones at Israel and at cargo vessels plying the key Red Sea trade route. They say their attaks were in solidarity with the Palestinians in Gaza.

The US military has since, January 2024, been attacking their positions, saying it is trying to stop their attacks.

Since US President Donald Trump took office, those attacks have intensified, with strikes carried out almost daily for the past month.

On Sunday, the Houthis claimed to have launched, for the second time in two days, a missile towards Israel.

The Israeli army reported intercepting a missile from Yemen before it crossed into the country.

On Saturday, CENTCOM, the US military command in the region, posted footage from the US aircraft carriers Harry S. Truman and Carl Vinson conducting strikes against the Houthis.
