The US military has been carrying out almost daily attacks for the past month, saying it was targeting the “Iran-backed Huthi terrorists” to stop attacks on international shipping in the Gulf.
One attack Thursday on the Ras Issa oil port killed some 80 people and injured 150, according to the Huthis.
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said Saturday that he was “gravely concerned” by the US strikes. But he also called on the Huthis to stop missile attacks on Israel and Gulf shipping.
