US Launches Strikes on Houthi Targets in Yemen

The military action aims to protect maritime navigation amid escalating regional tensions involving Iran-backed groups.

The US military conducted airstrikes on 15 Houthi targets in Yemen, focusing on weapons systems and bases.
The strikes were a response to Houthi attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea, linked to the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.
CENTCOM stated the strikes were intended to ensure the safety of international waters for US and allied vessels.
Houthi officials condemned the strikes as aggression and warned of severe consequences for the United States.
The attacks occur amid heightened regional tensions following Iran's missile strike on Israel and ongoing conflicts involving Hezbollah.
