The strikes, conducted from air and sea, targeted command centers, missile systems, radar installations, and air defense systems in Sana\u2019a and Al Hudaydah. The Houthi-controlled Health Ministry in Yemen reported that 31 people were killed and 101 wounded as a result of the U.S. attack.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Houthi military spokesman, the U.S. conducted about 47 strikes across the provinces of Sana\u2019a, Saada, Dhamar, Hajjah, Marib, Al-Bayda&#8217;, and Al-Jawf. In response, the rebels claimed they launched an attack on the USS Harry S. Truman, using 18 missiles and drones.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Six Senior Houthi Officials Killed<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Arabic-language Sky News channel, broadcasting from the UAE, reported this morning that six senior Houthi officials were killed in the American strikes. So far, this report has not been confirmed by other sources. Meanwhile, following renewed threats from the rebels, a Houthi missile landed overnight in the Sharm el-Sheikh region of southern Sinai.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Israel Was Among the Few Countries Briefed in Advance<\/strong><br \/>\nA senior Israeli official stated that the U.S. informed Israel ahead of the strikes, making it one of the few countries briefed before the operation. The American strikes were carried out using fighter jets from the USS Harry S. Truman, alongside U.S. Air Force attack aircraft and armed drones launched from bases in the region, according to American sources.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Coordinated Air and Ground Offensive<\/strong><br \/>\nThe operation was conducted simultaneously across multiple locations in an effort to precisely target Houthi military infrastructure and disrupt their ability to continue threatening maritime routes in the Red Sea.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">CENTCOM Forces Launch Large Scale Operation Against Iran-Backed Houthis in Yemen<\/p>\n<p>On  March 15, U.S. Central Command initiated a  series of operations consisting of precision strikes against Iran-backed Houthi  targets across Yemen to defend American interests, deter enemies, and\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/u5yx8WneoG\">pic.twitter.com\/u5yx8WneoG<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; U.S. Central Command (@CENTCOM) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CENTCOM\/status\/1901001417831150000?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 15, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>American officials described the operation as &#8220;the opening salvo of a broader campaign,&#8221; aimed at weakening the Houthis&#8217; extensive weapons arsenal and sending a strong message to Iran.
