The international community voiced concern as the United States and the Houthi group have both vowed escalation after US President Donald Trump ordered his first airstrikes in Yemen, which killed 53 people, including five children. The Houthis claimed on Monday to have twice attacked a US aircraft carrier group within 24 hours, calling it retaliation for Saturday's US strikes. According to a US official, the Houthis did fire drones and at least one missile in response to the US attack. China on Monday called for a dialogue and de-escalation of tensions in the Red Sea. "China opposes any action that escalates the situation in the Red Sea," Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning told a news conference in Beijing. "The reasons behind the situation in the Red Sea and the Yemen issue are complex and should be properly resolved through dialogue and negotiation." ▲ People clean debris in front of their shops after US airstrikes in Sanaa, Yemen, on Sunday.
