Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that US forces have targeted hundreds of Houthi sites in Yemen, as part of an aggressive campaign against the Iran-backed rebels since mid-March. This includes a notable airstrike on the Ras Isa fuel port, which resulted in substantial damage and numerous casualties. Hegseth emphasized the ongoing operations' success in diminishing Houthi leadership and capabilities, thus addressing threats to US maritime interests in the Red Sea. However, the Pentagon remains reticent about providing extensive details on the specific targets of the strikes.
The US has executed lethal operations against Houthi terrorists, striking hundreds of targets and significantly reducing capabilities that threaten US ships in the region.
Hegseth stated that the Ras Isa fuel port, a vital Houthi facility, was bombed, showing significant destruction that killed dozens and injured over 150.
