The strikes include at least dozens of targets across multiple locations in Yemen, according to one of the officials, including targets in the capital Sanaa and elsewhere.
The targets included Houthi weapons, radar sites, command and control center, as well as underground weapons storage facilities.
Earlier this month, the Pentagon said that the continued strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen, which began in January, have destroyed more than 100 missiles and launches, including anti-ship missiles, drones, radars and more.
It is also extremely expensive and impractical, some officials note, to keep firing multimillion-dollar missiles at cheap Houthi drones and missiles.
CORRECTION: This story has been updated to correct the number of strikes carried out against Houthi targets in Yemen.
