ALBAWABA- In a recent update, an American official revealed to Al Jazeera that US forces conducted airstrikes in Yemen, specifically targeting Houthi sites in Sana'a earlier this morning.
The strike was aimed at preventing the launch of four ballistic missiles believed to be in the possession of the Houthi rebels.
This retaliatory action comes in response to the Houthi attack on the Gibraltar Eagle container tanker, which occurred on Monday.
The US government deemed it necessary to neutralize the threat posed by the prepared Houthi missiles, marking a significant escalation in the ongoing tensions in the Red Sea water.
