SANAA, Yemen – The United States said it struck targets in Yemen’s rebel-held capital, hours after a Huthi rebel missile wounded people in Israel’s
commercial hub Tel Aviv.Among the targets of US forces was a rebel missile storage center and a “command-and-control facility,” the US Central Command said in a statement.
The Iran-backed Huthi rebels had claimed responsibility for the Saturday strike on Israel, saying they directed a ballistic missile at “a military target of the Israeli enemy”. “I was at home and heard a loud explosion. I immediately went to the scene and saw significant blast damage to nearby buildings,” medic Yosef Kourdi was quoted as saying in a statement released by Israel’s emergency medical service, Magen David Adom.
An AFP photographer reported that many residents in the vicinity of the strike had to leave their homes, carrying only the essentials. In response, Israel struck several Huthi targets in Yemen, including in Sanaa — the first such strike on the rebel-held capital.Hours after the Huthi attack on Saturday, the Israeli military said it had intercepted a drone over southern Israel, which had approached from the east.
