Sanaa, March 12 (RHC)-- The United States and Britain have carried out fresh aggression on Yemeni soil by targeting the western province of Hudaydah amid Yemen’s indefatigable support for Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Yemen's al-Masirah television network reported on Monday that the American and British warplanes had attacked al-Araj area in the Bajil district of Hudaydah with missiles.

The television network also reported “three raids” by the U.S. and British air forces that targeted Ras Issa area in Yemen’s Salif district of Hudaydah.

The latest aggression came hours after the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) claimed to have received report of the sound of an explosion near a vessel 131km (71 nautical miles) southwest of Yemen’s port of Salif.  The UKMTO said the vessel and its crew were safe, adding that the incident was under investigation.

The U.S.-British coalition has launched several airstrikes against various areas in the western Yemeni province over the past few weeks.

The U.S.-UK aggression continues in blatant violation of Yemeni sovereignty and as an attempt to deter Sana’a from its decision to prevent Israeli-linked shipping through the strategic Red Sea in support of the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

Palestinians have been facing a months-long genocidal war by the occupying regime that has killed more than 31,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children since October when it launched its war on the Gaza Strip after the territory’s Palestinian resistance movements carried out the surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm.

Yemenis have declared their open support for Palestine’s struggle against the Israeli occupation since the regime launched its devastating war on Gaza, with Yemeni Armed Forces pledging not to stop retaliatory strikes.

The maritime attacks have forced some of the world’s biggest shipping and oil companies to suspend transit through one of the world’s most important maritime trade routes.
