US airstrikes targeting Yemen's Houthi militias pounded sites across the country into Monday, with the group saying the one attack in the capital killed at least one person and wounded more than a dozen others.
The American strikes entered their 10th day without a sign of stopping, part of a campaign by US President Donald Trump targeting the militias that threaten maritime trade and Israel while also trying to pressure Iran, the Houthis' main benefactor.
So far, the US has not offered any specifics on the sites it is striking, though Trump's national security adviser Mike Waltz claimed the attacks have “taken out key Houthi leadership, including their head missileer.” That's something so far that's not been acknowledged by the Houthis, though the militias have downplayed their losses in the past and exaggerated their attacks attempting to target American warships.
“We’ve hit their headquarters," Waltz told CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday. "We’ve hit communications nodes, weapons factories and even some of their over-the-water drone production facilities.”
The campaign of airstrikes targeting the militias, which killed at least 53 people immediately after they began March 15, started after the Houthis threatened to begin targeting “Israeli" ships again over Israel blocking aid entering the Gaza Strip.
