US-Britain Launch Fresh Attacks on Yemen

US-Britain Launch Fresh Attacks on Yemen

US, Britain Conduct Fresh Four Air Raids on Hodeidah

Alwaght- American and British warplanes have launched new attacks on Yemen's port city of Hudaydah in support of ongoing Israeli war on Gaza.

Yemen’s official Saba news agency, citing a security source speaking on condition of anonymity, reported that two airstrikes hit al-Kuwaizi area in the al-Durayhimi district late on Friday. No further details about any casualties were immediately available.

The development came hours after US and British forces conducted three strikes against positions in the Port of Ras Isa, reported Press TV.

The attacks provide a cover for the Israeli genocidal war on Gaza as they strike Yemen for its ban on Israeli ships and ports.

The airstrikes on Yemen are now close to a daily basis as everyday reports of the attack come out.

Ansarullah Movement of Yemen, however, said that the Western operations against Yemen are not working and that it continues to implement the anti-Israeli ban.

Desperate US concerned as attacks prove ineffective 

CNN reported on Saturday that the Biden administration is concerned as powerful Ansarullah continues to launch attacks on the Israeli ships as well as American and British vessels it labeled "legitimate targets" recently. 

"We know that the Houthis maintain a large arsenal,” Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Sabrina Singh said on Thursday, hours after Ansarullah hit yet another cargo vessel in the Gulf of Aden with ballistic missiles. “They are very capable, they have sophisticated weapons, and that’s because they continue to get them from Iran.” 

“They continue to surprise us,” said one senior defense official, referring to the Houthis. “We just don’t have a good idea of what they still have.” 

The US last month turned to China for pressures on Iran to persuade Ansarullah to end its Red Sea operations, but China refused to play in the American game. 

Britain also made a similar demand to China last week. Foreign Secretary David Cameron in a meeting with Chinese counterpart Wang Yi called for a Chinese push against Ansarullah. But Beijing does not seem interested in pressing its allies. 

Washington and London started their airstrikes on Yemen under the ruse of protecting the international navigation on January 23, but experts blame them for being accomplices to Israeli war crimes.
