DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — A series of intense airstrikes shook Yemen’s rebel-held capital and a port city, shortly after a Houthi missile targeted central Israel. It wasn’t immediately clear who launched the strikes early Thursday on Sanaa, which the Houthis have held for over a decade, and the port city of Hodeida. American forces have launched a series of strikes on the Houthis over nearly a year due to Houthi attacks on shipping in the Red Sea corridor. A U.S. military official said Americans weren’t involved in the attack. The strikes happened just after the Israeli military said its air force intercepted a missile launched from Yemen before it entered the country’s territory. The Israeli military did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
