CloseThe US and UK have conducted a fresh series of joint air strikes against eight Houthi targets in Yemen.

The strikes targeted an underground storage site and Houthi missile and surveillance capability, the Pentagon said.

The Iran-backed Houthis have been targeting ships they say are linked to Israel and the West that travel through the important Red Sea trade route.

The US and UK said they are trying to protect the "free flow of commerce".
