50,000 Yemenis left without water after US airstrike in Al-Hudaydah

At least 50,000 people were left without water in western Yemen on Wednesday after a US airstrike hit a drinking water tank in the coastal Al-Hudaydah province.

The Houthi-run Al-Masirah TV said the attack targeted the water tank in al-Sanif village and damaged a water facility in the Mansouriyah district in Al-Hudaydah, disrupting water supply to over 50,000 people across eight rural villages.

The outlet aired footage showing the aftermath of the attack on the water facility.

On Tuesday, the Houthi group said that four people were killed and three others injured after US airstrikes in Al-Hudaydah. Three more strikes were reported in Hajjah province in northwestern Yemen, but no casualties were reported.
