Rear Admiral Marc Miguez revealed that while more aggressive military strategies against the Houthis were proposed, they were ultimately declined by US high command due to concerns over Iran.
Miguez noted that the carrier strike group under his command conducted seven focused attacks on Houthi targets during their deployment, despite high command's reluctance to escalate.
He emphasized the awareness of the threat posed by Iranian-backed groups like the Houthis, indicating it was a key consideration at a national command level.
Looking to the future, Miguez advocates for a potential change in strategy, suggesting that the National Command Authority may need to adopt a more aggressive approach against the Houthis.
