The Houthi rebels announced that an intelligence commander had been killed while several US air strikes targeted the Houthi posts throughout Yemen held rebels on Monday evening.
The Houthis said Colonel Abdul Nasser Sarhan Al-Kamali had been killed in one of the American strikes.
Anonymous sources have declared to the Al Hadath network, two air strikes struck Houthi weapons stores on the island of Kamaran in Hodeidah as well as an ammunition deposit in the Al-Juba region of Marib Governate.
Five other strikes targeted the Al Jumaimah region in the Sanaa governorate, Al Hadath reported.
Al Hadath also said that the Houthis had carried out an arrest campaign after strikes. Among those who would be detained, there was the deputy chief of the Houthi intelligence service on the suspicions he has disclosed contact details for targets.
An intense air strike campaign in Yemen under American President Donald Trump targeting rebels since March has killed at least 70 people, according to injury figures published by the Houthis.

The campaign shows no signs of stopping, because the Trump administration has repeatedly linked its air strikes to the Houthis to an effort to put pressure on Iran on its nuclear program quickly.
Centcom did not comment on the individual strikes, but displayed images of aircraft preparing for attacks on Monday evening.

During a meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday, the American president welcomed the success of the current operation.
“It was a bad week for the Houthis,” added the defense secretary, Pete Hegseth, “and it’s about to get worse.”
He said the United States had destroyed underground installations, weapons manufacturing sites, bunkers, troops and air defense assets.
“We are not going to give in,” said HegSeth, “and it will only be relentless until the Houthis declare that they will stop shooting our ships.”
He added that the United States was “very clear” to the Iranians that it should stop providing support for the Houthis.

Since March 18, when the FDI have resumed its offensive against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, the Houthis in Yemen launched at least 10 ballistic missiles in Israel, taking over a bombing campaign that they started to support Gaza.
The missiles were all intercepted by the air defenses, but they sparked sirens which send millions of Israelis rushing to shelters at all hours of the day and night. Friday evening, the FDI intercepted a drone which, according to the Houthis, was addressed to the Tel Aviv region.
The war in Gaza began on October 7, 2023, when the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas led some 5,000 attackers to invade southern Israel, killing 1,200 people and removing 251 as the enclave offices.
The Houthis supported by Iran have targeted more than 100 merchant ships with missiles and drones, flowing two of them and killing four sailors from November 2023 to January this year.
They also launched attacks targeting American warships without success. In addition, they targeted Israel with missiles and drones, killing a person in Tel Aviv and causing significant damage several times. Most projectiles have been intercepted.
The attacks considerably enhanced the profile of the Houthis, which faced economic problems and launched a repression targeting dissent and the workers of Le Havre in Yemen in the midst of a falsified war of a decade which tore the poorest nation of the Arab world.
