American Airstrikes Shake Sana'a: Precision Strikes Target Key Houthi Sites
In the early hours of Monday morning, a series of American airstrikes targeted strategic military sites belonging to the Houthi group in the Yemeni capital, Sana'a. The strikes caused violent explosions that shook the city and instilled panic among the residents.
Details of the Airstrikes
According to local sources and media reports, the airstrikes targeted the following locations:
The First Armored Division headquarters north of Sana'a.
The sensitive Al-Attan Mountain area in the south of the capital.
The Al-Sawad area south of Sana'a, where three consecutive airstrikes took place.
A hidden weapons storage hangar in the Sha'ban area on the eastern side of Sana'a.
These airstrikes caused powerful explosions heard throughout Sana'a, resulting in widespread panic among the local population.
Reactions and Security Measures
Following the strikes, the Houthi group imposed a wide security cordon and a heavy military presence in the targeted areas, particularly in the Sha'ban area. This indicates the sensitivity of the targeted sites, which are believed to contain significant military equipment or supplies.
As of now, there has been no official comment from the United States regarding these airstrikes.
Background of the Escalation
These airstrikes are part of an ongoing American military campaign launched in March 2025, in response to Houthi attacks on vessels in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.
The Houthi group has reported that more than 1,300 airstrikes and naval attacks have been carried out since the beginning of the campaign, resulting in the deaths and injuries of hundreds of civilians.
Humanitarian Impact
The Houthi Health Ministry has reported that 14 people were injured in the airstrikes, though it has not clarified whether the casualties include any Houthi militants.
Reports indicate that the airstrikes caused significant damage to infrastructure and private property, exacerbating the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Yemen.
