Latest U.S. Strikes in Yemen Kill at Least 4 After Earlier Strike Said to Have Hit Large Eid Celebration

HeadlineApr 07, 2025

The U.S. is continuing to carry out airstrikes on Yemen. On Sunday, Yemeni health officials said at least four people were killed in a U.S. strike on a home in Sana’a. More than 20 people were injured, including women and children.

Meanwhile, President Trump posted a video online of an earlier U.S. strike in Yemen. The video shows a blast hitting over 70 people standing in an oval formation. Trump claimed the individuals targeted were Houthis preparing to carry out an attack, but according to reports in Yemen, the blast actually hit a tribal gathering to celebrate Eid al-Fitr, the end of Ramadan. The Trump administration has launched near-daily attacks on Yemen since mid-March, when the Houthis resumed attacks on ships in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza.
