News – Yemen: US warplanes have carried out 13 airstrikes on Yemen’s Sa’adah province in recent hours.

Local sources reported that American forces targeted the eastern outskirts of Sa’adah city with three airstrikes, launched six strikes on the Al-Salem District, and four on the Kitaf District.

This assault on Sa'adah follows a series of aggressive U.S. airstrikes on the provinces of Al-Hodeidah, Amran, and Al-Baidha.

The American forces appear to be escalating their attacks in a failed attempt to conceal their setbacks and promote their air campaign, which has so far failed to curb the growing Yemeni operations in support of the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

The US air launched a campaign against Yemen began on March 15, 2025, following Yemen's decision to resume retaliatory attacks on Israel in response to Israel's intensified operations in Gaza. Since the initiation of the airstrikes, US forces have targeted civilian infrastructure throughout Yemen, including communication networks, power plants, and water reservoirs, on an almost daily basis.

Washington justifies its airstrikes by claiming they are aimed at restoring freedom of navigation in the waters around Yemen. However, Yemen has rejected these claims, stating that its military operations are specifically directed against Israeli-linked vessels and not international shipping.

Yemen's military has been targeting ships in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, as well as those operating in Israeli-occupied territories, since October 2023, following Israel’s genocidal actions in Gaza.
