Huthi media reported fresh US air strikes on Monday targeting rebel-held Hodeida on Yemen's western coast. "A strike by the American aggression targeted the region of Bajel in the Hodeida governorate", while others targeted a steel factory in the Al-Salif region in the same governorate, according to the Iran-backed Huthis' Saba press agency. The rebels' Al-Masirah also reported the strikes. Earlier, Huthis said they attacked an American aircraft carrier group twice within 24 hours as they prepared for huge rallies on Monday after US strikes left dozens dead. The attack came as President Donald Trump declared he will hold Iran directly responsible for any future attacks by Yemen's Tehran-backed Huthi rebels, who have targeted multiple US and other foreign ships in the Red Sea. "Every shot fired by the Houthis will be looked upon, from this point forward, as being a shot fired from the weapons and leadership of IRAN, and IRAN will be held responsible, and suffer the consequences," Trump posted on his Truth Social platform. While the United States has been carrying out strikes on Huthi targets for months, Trump's comments were unusually pointed at Iran, whom he is also pressuring over nuclear talks. He spoke after the first US strikes on Yemen of his new term killed 53 people and wounded 98 on Saturday. In response the Huthis claimed two strikes on a US aircraft carrier and rallied thousands at protests in parts of Yemen under their control. The United States struck the Huthis over their repeated attacks on Red Sea shipping vessels, which have put a major strain on the vital trade route. The Huthis have said they are carrying out the attacks in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, where Israel is waging a war with US support. "Any further attack or retaliation by the 'Houthis' will be met with great force," Trump also said in his post, adding that "Iran has played 'the innocent victim'" in the conflict. Before this weekend's targeting of the US carrier group, the Huthis had not claimed attacks in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden since January 19, when a ceasefire in Gaza began. The response from the Huthis follows attacks on Saturday ordered by President Donald Trump that hammered the rebel-held capital, Sanaa, and several other areas, killing 53 people, according to the rebels. The United States struck the Huthis over their repeated attacks on Red Sea shipping sparked by the Gaza war, which have put a major strain on the vital trade route.
