The Yemen government has dismissed the US claims it is targeting military sites in Yemen as a “complete lie and slander”, Al Jazeera reports
The statement came after a US attack on the capital, Sanaa, killed at least one person and wounded more than a dozen others.
The government said: “The pictures, scenes, evidence, types of victims, and testimonies of survivors from the targeted sites confirm that it is targeting residential neighbourhoods and innocent civilians, and provide conclusive evidence that the US is deliberately taking the lives of defenceless civilians and destroying the capabilities of our people.”
It said the attacks will not deter Yemen from supporting Palestinians in Gaza and that the country will also support Lebanon and Hezbollah, if necessary.
