SANAA, Jan. 5 (Xinhua) -- A U.S.-led navy coalition launched three airstrikes on Yemen's northern province of Saada on Sunday morning, the Houthi-run al-Masirah TV reported.

The strikes targeted a military site of the Houthi group in the city, residents said on social media.

The U.S. military has yet to comment on the claim.

The U.S. Central Command said Tuesday in a press release that U.S. forces had conducted multiple precision strikes targeting Houthi positions in Yemen's capital to degrade their "effort to threaten regional partners."

The Houthi group, which controls much of northern Yemen, has been launching regular rocket and drone attacks against Israel and disrupting "Israeli-linked" shipping in the Red Sea since November 2023 in support of Palestinians. Enditem
