American aviation launched, during the past hours, nine air strikes on sites in Saada Governorate, northern Yemen, in a new escalation.

Local sources said that six raids targeted the Sahlin area in the Al Salem district, while three raids targeted sites north of the city of Saada.

It has not yet been known for the details of the targets or the size of the losses, amid intense flight to fly in the atmosphere of the province.

These raids come within the framework of the United States’s air campaign since mid -March, which target the sites of the Houthi gang in Yemen, in response to their ongoing attacks on international navigation in the Red Sea and Bab al -Mandab.

Washington says that its military operations aim to undermine the capabilities of the Houthis and prevent them from threatening commercial ships and oil tankers, in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden
