U.S. Strikes in Yemen Kill 150 Civilians | Lubbock News

A Pentagon review reveals U.S. airstrikes in Yemen last year killed over 150 civilians and injured 243 others, sparking renewed scrutiny of military operations. Targeting Houthi rebels near Sanaa and Ras Isa in April 2025, the strikes—part of a broader campaign since 2023 to counter Houthi attacks on Red Sea shipping—were deemed likely to cause civilian harm. Though condolence payments were offered (though not legally required), the report offers no explanation for the decision. As tensions escalate, with Houthi attacks intensifying against Saudi Arabia and U.S. forces battling drones and missiles in what some call the Navy’s largest sea battle since WWII, the conflict risks reigniting Yemen’s civil war and destabilizing global trade routes.
