The United States Central Command conducted strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen to ensure the safety of international waterways, targeting military capabilities aligned with Iranian interests.
Central Command emphasized that the recent military actions were taken to secure freedom of navigation, making international waters safer for U.S., coalition, and merchant vessels alike.
Houthi officials have characterized the U.S. strikes as a desperate attempt at intimidation, vowing that such actions will not deter their resolve or protests.
The attacks in the Red Sea have disrupted commercial shipping severely, forcing many vessels to reroute and exposing them to risks such as damage, abductions, and casualties.
