US strikes on a Yemeni fuel port killed at least 38 people, Huthi rebels said Friday, in one of the deadliest attacks of Washington's renewed campaign against the Iran-backed group.

The strikes also injured more than 100 people, according to a Huthi-run television station that broadcast footage of large blazes lighting up the night sky.
