President Trump has ordered airstrikes against the Houthi rebels in Yemen, claiming the need to protect American shipping interests and restore navigational freedom. The Houthis reported significant civilian casualties as a result of the bombings. Trump threatened to utilize 'overwhelming lethal force' until the Iran-backed group halts attacks on vital maritime corridors. Concurrently, Trump emphasized that Iran would be held accountable for its support of the Houthis. This military action follows a recent communication from Trump to Iran seeking a pathway to restart nuclear negotiations.
"No terrorist force will stop American commercial and naval vessels from freely sailing the Waterways of the World."
