The U.S. military said it conducted precision airstrikes on Saturday against a missile storage facility and a command-and-control facility operated by
Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen's capital, Sanaa.
In a statement, the U.S. military's Central Command said the strikes aimed to "disrupt and degrade Houthi operations, such as attacks against U.S. Navy warships and merchant vessels in the Southern Red Sea, Bab al-Mandeb, and Gulf of Aden".
The U.S. military also said it struck multiple Houthi one-way drones and an anti-ship cruise missile over the Red Sea.
Saturday's strike followed a similar attack last week by U.S. aircraft against a command and control facility operated by the Houthis, which control much of Yemen.
