U.S. Intensifies Airstrikes on Houthis as Iran Faces Renewed Warnings

The Trump administration's military campaign in Yemen seeks to counter Houthi threats to global shipping and Israeli security while pressuring Iran to halt its support.

The U.S. launched a large-scale air campaign targeting Houthi positions in Yemen, marking the most significant escalation of military action in the region under Trump's presidency.
President Trump has warned Iran to immediately cease its support for the Houthis, threatening severe consequences and holding Tehran accountable for the group's actions.
The Houthis have resumed attacks on international shipping and Israel, claiming solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, and have vowed to continue their operations despite U.S. strikes.
Civilian casualties from U.S. airstrikes have been reported, with over 50 deaths, including children, raising concerns about the humanitarian impact of the campaign.
Experts warn that the conflict risks escalating into a broader regional war, potentially drawing in Iran and further destabilizing the Middle East.
