ALLIES HIT YEMEN

A BRITISH-US air and sea attack on Yemeni Houthi rebels has killed at least 16 and injured 35 others.

It is the highest toll from Western strikes on the Iran-backed group, which has been targeting shipping in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.

War planes and missiles smashed underground facilities, missile launchers, command and control sites, a ship and other facilities.

Thursday night's strikes follow a surge in Houthi attacks over the IsraelHamas war in Gaza.
