YEMEN HOUTHIS USA ISRAEL GAZA CONFLICT

Funeral for Houthi fighters killed in US-UK-carried out airstrikes

epa11075802 Houthi members of honor guard carry the coffins of slain Houthi fighters who were killed in recent US-UK-carried out airstrikes on Houthi sites, during a funeral at the Shaab mosque in Sana'a, Yemen, 14 January 2024. At least six Houthi fighters were killed and five others wounded in airstrikes carried out on 12 January 2024 by the US and Britain against several Houthis-controlled sites in Yemen in response to recent Houthis attacks on shipping lanes in the Red Sea, according to the Houthis military spokesman Yahya Sarea. 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.
