The U.S. has intensified its military strikes in Yemen against the Houthis following their recent attacks on shipping in the Red Sea, which resulted in at least 31 deaths and injured more than 100. President Trump stated that he would employ overwhelming force against the Houthis to safeguard maritime security, which the group claims is a violation of international law. The Houthis intend to continue their operations until humanitarian aid reaches Gaza, amid rising tensions in the region and a pause in their attacks following a ceasefire.
The Houthis, responding to President Trump's order of air strikes, vowed to meet escalation with escalation, declaring the US strikes a war crime.
Houthi spokesperson Al-Asbahi reported that at least 31 were killed, most of whom were women and children, following intense US strikes targeting several Yemeni regions.
President Trump emphasized that he would employ overwhelming lethal force against the Houthis until they halted their attacks on crucial maritime shipping routes.
US Defense Secretary Hegseth reiterated commitment to relentless strikes against the Houthis, stating it would continue until they ceased attacks on global shipping.
