The death toll from the US attack on Yemen has risen to 53 people. This was announced on March 16 by the press service of the Ministry of Health of the country.

"The number of martyrs is 53, including five children and two women," the report says.

In addition, at least 98 people, including six children and nine women, were injured as a result of the American airstrikes.

Al Masirah TV channel reported on March 16 that the US army carried out an airstrike on a power plant in Dhayan province of Saada in northern Yemen. Later that day, the Yemeni Houthis from the Ansar Allah movement announced that they would reach a new level of escalation if the United States continued bombing Yemen.

On March 15, US President Donald Trump announced that he had ordered the US military to begin operations against the Yemeni Houthis. Soon, the central command of the US Armed Forces announced the start of a large-scale operation in Yemen. The Houthis from the Ansar Allah movement, in turn, stressed that the American airstrikes would not go unanswered.
