According to reports from the media controlled by the Houthi armed forces in Yemen on February 15, the United States and the United Kingdom once again launched air strikes on the Red Sea city of Hodeidah in Yemen. The Houthis said on the same day that they fired a missile at a British ship sailing in the Gulf of Aden and accurately hit the target.
Masira TV station controlled by Yemen’s Houthi armed forces reported on the 15th that the United States and the United Kingdom launched two air strikes in the Jabana district north of the Red Sea city of Hodeidah in Yemen. Some residents in Hodeidah Province said they heard the sound of fighter planes flying over that night, and then heard explosions suspected of being caused by an air strike.
Houthis say they have attacked British ships
Yahya Saraya, spokesman for the Houthi armed forces in Yemen, issued a statement on the 15th saying that several missiles were fired at a British ship sailing in the Gulf of Aden and accurately hit the target. Sarrea said that the Houthis will take more measures to retaliate against the US and British air strikes. The Houthis will continue to impose a blockade on the navigation of Israeli ships in the Red Sea and Arabian Sea until a ceasefire is achieved in the Gaza Strip and the siege is lifted.
Public shipping information shows that the attacked ship was a bulk carrier flying the Barbados flag and operated by a British company. The British Maritime Trade Action Office stated earlier on the 15th that a merchant ship sailing in the Gulf of Aden reported an explosion on the sea not far from the ship that day, causing no casualties or hull damage.
Houthi leader says U.S. and British actions failed to achieve goals
In addition, the leader of the Houthi armed forces, Abdul Malik Houthi, stated on the 15th that the actions of the Houthi armed forces have effectively blocked the activities of Israeli ships, and that the US and British military operations in Yemen have failed to achieve their goals. The only solution is to cease military operations and provide food, medicine and humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza.
