According to the Houthis military spokesman Yahya Sarea, five Houthi fighters were killed and six others wounded in a total of 73 airstrikes carried out by the United States and the United Kingdom against several Houthis-controlled sites in Yemen in response to Houthis attacks in the Red Sea. The US Department of Defense had announced in December 2023 a multinational operation to safeguard trade and to protect ships in the Red Sea amid the recent escalation in Houthi attacks. Houthis vowed to attack Israeli-bound ships and prevent them from navigating in the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab Strait in retaliation for Israel's airstrikes on the Gaza Strip, according to Sarea.
