US strikes on Yemen kill at least 80, Houthis call attacks 'barbaric': Report

The number of people killed in the US-led attack on the Ras Issa facility has climbed to at least 74, with at least 171 others wounded, reported the Yemen News Agency.

The strike, part of Washington’s ongoing military campaign in Yemen, has drawn fierce condemnation, with critics saying it is enabling Israel’s broader war effort in Gaza.

The Houthi group called the attacks a "barbaric crime".

"US aggression reflects the criminal tendencies of the US and its staggering efforts to break the naval blockade imposed by Yemen in support of the Palestinian people and their resistance to the war crimes and genocide of the usurping Zionist regime against the civilians of Gaza," the group said in a statement.
