US launches strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen, CENTCOM confirms

The US Air Force launched several strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen, CENTCOM announced on Friday night.

Yemeni media reported 24 airstrikes on the Houthi controlled cities Sana’a, Saada, and the Al Jawf Governorate in the country’s North, with Houthi-affiliated source Al-Masirah citing their correspondent in Saada saying that one civilian was killed and four others were wounded in the country’s northwestern city.

Of the 24 strikes reported, the correspondent also claimed that 14 of them were in Saada alone.

The US strikes came a day after the Yemen-based terrorist organization had launched two ballistic missiles towards Israeli territory but were intercepted by the IDF before they could enter the country. As a result, sirens sounded across central Israel at around 1:09 p.m., including Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.

Previous US strikes on the Houthis

The Trump administration accidentally texted their previous military strikes against the Houthis to the Atlantic‘s editor-in-chief and former Jerusalem Post columnist Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor wrote on Monday on the magazine platform.

Goldberg added that he received the information via Signal, an open-source encrypted messaging service. A Thursday report from The Wall Street Journal elaborated on the intelligence behind a terrorist who was killed in the strikes in Yemen discussed in Signal, reporting that the information was provided by Israel, the Journal cited to US officials as saying.

Israeli officials reportedly complained when the information was leaked to Goldberg. 

This is a developing story.
