The US military carried out another round of strikes in Yemen on Friday, targeting missile launchers that were preparing for attacks on shipping in the Red Sea, the White House said.


Washington is seeking to reduce the rebels' military capabilities, who have been able to continue their attacks despite a week of strikes, and they have vowed that they will keep targeting merchant vessels.


The air campaign began last week with American and British strikes on nearly 30 sites in Yemen using more than 150 munitions, while US forces later attacked a radar site in what was described as "a follow-on action" to the previous strikes.
