US and British warplanes launched fresh airstrikes in Hajjah and Al Hudaydah provinces in Yemen on Sunday, the Houthi group said.

An airstrike targeted the Baha’is area in the northwestern province of Hajjah, the Houthi-affiliated Al-Masirah television reported.

Two more strikes hit Al Hudaydah International Airport in western Yemen, and a third attack targeted al-Buhaisi area in the coastal province, the broadcaster said.

No details were provided about casualties or damage.

There was no comment yet from the US or Britain on the Houthi claim.

Since the beginning of 2024, a coalition led by the US has been conducting airstrikes that it said are targeting Houthi locations in parts of Yemen in response to attacks by the group in the Red Sea. The counterattacks have been occasionally met with retaliation from the group.

In solidarity with the Gaza Strip, where nearly 38,600 people have been killed in relentless Israeli attacks since last October, the Houthis targeted Israeli cargo ships or those associated with Tel Aviv in the Red Sea with missiles and drones, expressing determination to continue operations until the end of the war on the enclave.

With the intervention of Washington and London and an escalation of tensions, the Houthis announced that they now consider all American and British ships as military targets.
