Houthi-run Al Masira TV reported that at least two people were killed and 10 wounded in an attack on a radio building in Hodeidah’s al-Haq district.
“As always, great care was taken in planning attacks to minimize any risk to civilians or non-military infrastructure,” the British Ministry of Defense said in a statement. “Attacks at night should have further mitigated these risks.”
Houthi-run media reported 13 strikes, including 6 on the Yemeni capital Sanaa.
