US Intensifies Strikes on Yemen’s Houthis, Threatens Iran Over Proxy Ties

The Trump administration has ramped up military action against Houthi rebels, holding Iran accountable for the group's attacks on Red Sea shipping lanes.

US airstrikes in Yemen over the weekend killed at least 53 people, targeting Houthi leadership and infrastructure, according to official reports.
President Trump warned Iran that any further Houthi attacks would be treated as actions directed by Tehran, threatening severe consequences.
The Houthis claimed retaliatory missile and drone attacks on US naval assets, but US officials confirmed no hits on American vessels.
The conflict has disrupted global trade, with the Red Sea seeing a significant drop in shipping traffic due to ongoing Houthi attacks.
Iran denies direct control over the Houthis, while the Trump administration accuses Tehran of providing weapons, funding, and intelligence to the group.
