The US and UK began carrying out strikes on Houthi militia targets in Yemen in the early hours of Friday.

Washington and London had vowed to retaliate against attacks on shipping in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. 

The Houthis have pledged support for Gaza as a result of the fighting between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas, and have launched multiple drones and missiles at merchant vessels, as well as warships, patrolling the vital waterway. 

The Houthis are a Shia Islamist militia that rose to power following the wave of protests known as the Arab Spring, which swept the Middle East in the early 2010s.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has accused the US and UK of trying to turn the Red Sea into a “sea of blood” with their disproportionate strikes on Yemen. The Houthi fighters are mounting a “successful defense, response” against those attacks, Erdogan also said, newspaper Daily Sabah reported.
