US airstrikes targeting Yemen’s Houthi rebels pounded sites across the country, with the group saying the one attack in the capital killed at least one person and wounded more than a dozen others.

The American strikes entered their tenth day without a sign of stopping on Monday, part of a campaign by US President Donald Trump targeting the rebel group that threatens maritime trade and Israel while also trying to pressure Iran, the Houthis’ main benefactor.
