The United States renewed its strikes on areas controlled by the Iran-backed Houthis (Ansar Allah) in Yemen on October 30.
Yemen’s Al-Masirah TV, which is run by the Houthis, reported that the western province of al-Hodeida was targeted, with at least one strike hitting the vicinity of the al-Hodeida University in the district of Hawak. No casualties were reported by the news channel.
The U.S. Central Command has not commented on Al-Masirah’s report. Usually, the command announces such strikes within a few days.
The strikes came after the Houthis launched multiple attacks earlier this week in response to the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip and Lebanon.
On October 28, the Houthis said that their forces attacked three merchant vessels linked to Israel in the Red and Arab seas. And on October 29, the group attacked the southern Israeli city of Ashkelon with suicide drones, with at least one impact being reported.
The Houthis, who are backed by Iran, have attacked dozens of vessels affiliated with Israel or owned by the U.S. and the United Kingdom in the Red Sea, Gulf of Aden, Arabian Sea, Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea since last November. In addition, the group launched dozens of drones and missiles at Israel and shot down at least eleven American-made combat drones over Yemen and nearby waters.
The U.S. and the UK have carried out hundreds of strikes against Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen since January. Israel also launched two waves of strikes against civilian infrastructure in the western Yemeni province of al-Hodeidah in July and September. However, the aerial campaign failed to deter the Houthis or degrade their capabilities.

god bless the steadfast houthis. may they sink a carrier.
yemen considered a poor country by the west is by far wealthier than the western zionist proxy warriors in terms of character and spiritual wealth with it’s determination to fight the satanic zionist invaders of gaza
you can judge people by the company they keep. the amerikunts and their uk vassals are hand in glove with the genocidal zionist filth, actively enabling and participating in war crimes of a nazi character committed on a nazi scale. they will pay a huge price for this for a long time to come. they have taken off the mask and shown their true ugly repulsive faces to the world. from now on when they start mouthing off about freedumbs
and rules based human rights democracy values, the rest of the planet will be rolling around on the ground helpless with laughter. and the red sea and the suez canal will remain a shlomo-free, amerikunt-free and uk-free zone indefinitely. enjoy those long trips around africa.
go houthies! 👍
