Deadliest US Yemen Strike Kills 74, Houthis Say | JQJO

US airstrikes on a Yemeni oil port held by Houthi rebels killed 74 and wounded 171, according to the Houthis, marking the deadliest attack under President Trump's new military campaign. The US Central Command stated the strike aimed to eliminate fuel sources for the rebels, denying any intention to harm civilians. The Houthis launched a missile toward Israel following the strike, which was intercepted. The incident further internationalizes the conflict, with the US accusing a Chinese satellite company of aiding Houthi attacks—a claim China denies. The attack also follows recent Israeli airstrikes on Houthi infrastructure and comes amid ongoing tensions in the region.
