U.S. Airstrikes in Yemen Claim Lives, Spark Regional Tensions ⚔️🇾🇪

A fresh wave of U.S. airstrikes in Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, killed at least four people and injured 23 others Sunday evening, local health authorities confirmed. The strikes targeted a densely populated residential area, amplifying fears of escalating instability in the region. 🌍💥

Medical sources reported two men and two women among the dead, with 11 women and children injured. Rescue teams scrambled to search for survivors under collapsed buildings in the Shu’ub district. Nearby homes were also damaged, leaving residents reeling. 🏚️🚑

Houthi-run media reported additional strikes in western Sanaa and Hodeidah province, though no casualties were confirmed there. The U.S. military stated its campaign, launched in March, aims to 'degrade' Houthi capabilities, targeting air defenses and weapon sites. 🎯✈️

The Houthi movement, controlling much of northern Yemen, vows to continue attacks on ships linked to Israel in the Red Sea, citing Israel’s restrictions on Gaza aid. Analysts warn the cycle of strikes risks deepening humanitarian crises in a region already strained by years of conflict. ⚠️🚢
