Doha, Mar 16 (UNI) US fighter jets struck a power plant in the city of Dhahyan in the Saada province in northern Yemen, which led to a power outage in the city and its suburbs, Yemeni TV channel Al-Masirah reported.
The United States began airstrikes in Yemen on Sunday night, including in its capital Sanaa, after US President Donald Trump ordered the US military to take decisive action against the Shia military-political movement Ansar Allah (Houthis), which the US recently designated a terrorist organization, and which rules northern Yemen.
Earlier this week, the Houthis announced they would resume attacks on Israeli ships in the Red and Arabian Seas before Israel allowed humanitarian aid to be delivered to the Palestinian Gaza Strip, which it had stopped in early March, hoping to put pressure on Palestinian movement Hamas to release hostages.
