US Intensifies Airstrikes on Houthis, Trump Links Iran to Attacks
Airstrikes in Yemen by the US led to 53 deaths, as Trump directly blames Iran for Houthi actions, threatening dire consequences.
Overview
In a significant escalation, the US launched airstrikes in Yemen, killing at least 53, as President Trump warned Iran would face consequences for Houthi attacks. The campaign targets ongoing threats to maritime shipping in the Red Sea. The Houthis retaliated with claims of missile and drone attacks against the USS Harry S. Truman, vowing retaliation against America for blocking aid to Gaza. Trump described the Houthis as 'sinister mobsters' and pledged overwhelming force if they continue aggressions. Amid these tensions, humanitarian conditions in Yemen remain dire, with the Houthis reportedly seizing aid supplies, further complicating the ongoing conflict.
