The US and the UK have conducted a further round of strikes against the Houthis in an attempt to stop the group targeting shipping in the southern Red Sea. A joint statement from both countries said that they had conducted “an additional round of proportionate
and necessary strikes” against eight Houthi targets, with the support of Australia, Bahrain, Canada and the Netherlands. The number of targets is considerably
lower than the 60 which were struck in the first air raids
on Yemen made by the two countries 10 days earlier.
