UK PM Sunak confirms UK Air Force carried out airstrikes against Houthi positions in Yemen
Jan 12 2024
Sunak said that "the Houthi militia have carried out a series of dangerous and destabilising attacks against commercial shipping in the Red Sea, threatening UK and other international ships, causing major disruption to a vital trade route and driving up commodity prices."
The UK Defense Ministry said that the country's military used Typhoon fighter jets and Paveway IV guided bombs to carry out strikes against Houthi facilities, namely a site for launching reconnaissance and attack drones in the Bani Matar district and an airfield in the Abs district.
A US defense official told Sputnik earlier that the US, in coordination with US partners, carried out strikes against targets of the Houthis in Yemen. Government sources in Yemen's governorates told Sputnik that airstrikes hit targets in the cities of Al Hudaydah and Taiz, as well as the capital Sanaa.
