U.S. Airstrikes in Yemen Kill Six as Houthi Retaliation Intensifies

The Trump administration’s air campaign, now in its second month, has resulted in over 120 deaths while Houthis claim to have downed another U.S. drone.

Recent U.S. airstrikes in Yemen’s Sanaa province killed six people and injured dozens, with reports of civilian casualties including children.
The Houthis claim to have shot down a U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drone using a locally made missile, marking ongoing retaliation to the strikes.
Since the campaign's launch on March 15, over 200 airstrikes have been conducted, killing at least 123 people, mostly civilians, according to Yemen’s Health Ministry.
The U.S. military targets Houthi missile sites and drone facilities, aiming to deter attacks on Red Sea shipping lanes and Israeli targets connected to the Israel-Hamas conflict.
Despite significant casualties and infrastructure damage, the Houthis continue missile and drone attacks, including recent strikes on Israeli military and civilian sites.
