Iran -backed Hathi rebels said that 9 people were killed in attacks on Yemen’s capital on Saturday after the announcement of attack by US President Donald Trump. The Health and Environment Ministry of the Hutis said in a statement on its Saba news agency that nine civilians were killed and nine others were injured, most of whom were seriously injured.
US President Donald Trump said in a statement that I have ordered the United States Army to initiate decisive and powerful military action against Huti militants in Yemen. He has launched a continuous campaign of piracy, violence and terrorism against American and other ships, aircraft and drones.
In the past, Yemen’s Huti Group claimed to target three American military supply ships after leaving the Djibouti port. Huti military spokesperson Yahya Saria had said that we also targeted two American destructive ships in the Gulf of Aden, protecting the supply ships.
At the same time, Iran’s permanent mission in the United Nations (UN) dismissed the US allegation that Tehran is providing financial resources, arms assistance and military training to the Huti rebels in Yemen.
