Fri Dec 27 19:32:39 UTC 2024: ## Air Strike Hits Yemen’s Sanaa After Deadly Israeli Raids

**Sanaa, Yemen** – An air strike rocked Yemen’s capital Sanaa on Friday, a day after Israeli airstrikes killed six people. The Iran-backed Houthi rebels blamed the United States and Britain for the latest attack, citing “US-British aggression” in a statement. Witnesses confirmed hearing and feeling the impact of the blast, with one resident describing their house shaking.

The strike follows Thursday’s Israeli raids targeting infrastructure in Sanaa, including the international airport. These raids were a reprisal for a series of Houthi attacks on Israel. The Houthis have also been targeting shipping lanes in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden for months, prompting retaliatory strikes from US and British forces.

Neither Israel, the United States, nor Britain have yet commented on Friday’s air strike.
