Houthi rebels in Yemen claim that US strikes on a fuel port have killed at least 80 people, marking the deadliest attack in the US campaign against the Iran-backed group. The strikes aimed to cut off supplies and funds for the rebels who control large parts of the country. Houthi media reported additional strikes in and around the capital, Sanaa. The rebels have also announced missile attacks targeting Israel and two US aircraft carriers. The US military has been conducting near-daily airstrikes in Yemen in an effort to stop the rebels' attacks on shipping in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.
