Operation Poseidon Archer continues

US and UK carried out additional strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen last night, marking the 8th round of attacks by the US military on Houthis in just over 10 days.

They struck eight sites, according to the statement from the US and UK, which conducted the strikes, and Canada, the Netherlands, Bahrain, and Australia, which supported the attacks.

It was a smaller number than the first joint operation on January 11 that struck over 30 Houthi targets.

The strikes targeted a Houthi underground storage site and sites associates with Houthi missile and air surveillance.

For the first time, the US also struck an underground storage facility used by the Houthis.

The storage site was assessed to have “more advanced conventional weaponry,” including missiles and one-way attack drones.
