American attacks against Yemen pose a direct threat to international peace, Nebenzya added. The Houthi-owned Al-Masirah television channel reported earlier on January 31 that the armed forces of the United States and Great Britain were striking targets of the Shiite movement Ansar Allah ruling in northern Yemen. According to the TV channel, the northern outskirts of the city of Saada, the administrative center of the province of the same name, were attacked.

As Regnum reported, on January 31, the Houthis announced a new shelling of the American destroyer USS Gravely in the Red Sea. According to Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saria, all US and British warships that participated in the aggression against Yemen have been identified as targets of the armed forces. On January 28, a drone attacked a US military base in northeastern Jordan, killing three US military personnel. Al Jazeera later reported that the number of victims of the drone attack had increased to 34. According to CNN, eight military personnel were evacuated to provide medical assistance.
