US launches ‘NEW OFFENSIVE’ against Houthis in Yemen — NYT

More Details


Trump Orders Military Strikes Against Houthi Terrorists in Yemen​


President Donald Trump announced a decisive military response against Houthi militants in Yemen, declaring that the United States will no longer tolerate their attacks on American and allied shipping. “Today, I have ordered the United States Military to launch decisive and powerful Military action against the Houthi terrorists in Yemen,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social. The Houthis, he said, have been conducting “an unrelenting campaign of piracy, violence, and terrorism against American, and other, ships, aircraft, and drones.”

The military response is already underway, according to Trump. “Our brave Warfighters are right now carrying out aerial attacks on the terrorists’ bases, leaders, and missile defenses to protect American shipping, air, and naval assets, and to restore Navigational Freedom,” he announced. “No terrorist force will stop American commercial and naval vessels from freely sailing the Waterways of the World.”

He also sent a strong message to Tehran, demanding an immediate end to its support for the Houthis. “To Iran: Support for the Houthi terrorists must end IMMEDIATELY!” he declared. “Do NOT threaten the American People, their President, who has received one of the largest mandates in Presidential History, or Worldwide shipping lanes. If you do, BEWARE, because America will hold you fully accountable and, we won’t be nice about it!”

Trump Announces Military Action Against US Enemy: 'We Will Use Overwhelming Lethal Force Until We Have Achieved Our Objective'
President Donald Trump has unleashed America’s military might in the Middle East, attacking the Houthi rebels in Yemen and killing off an Islamic State leader in Iraq.

During Saturday’s attack on Yemen, members of the USS Harry S. Truman carrier strike group took part in the mission, according to the Associated Press, which said the U.S. was alone in making the attack.

“Today, I have ordered the United States Military to launch decisive and powerful Military action against the Houthi terrorists in Yemen,” Trump posted on Truth Social.

“They have waged an unrelenting campaign of piracy, violence, and terrorism against American, and other, ships, aircraft, and drones,” Trump said.

“Our brave Warfighters are right now carrying out aerial attacks on the terrorists’ bases, leaders, and missile defenses to protect American shipping, air, and naval assets, and to restore Navigational Freedom. No terrorist force will stop American commercial and naval vessels from freely sailing the Waterways of the World,” Trump wrote.

Houthis vow to respond to US ‘war crime’ after 31 said killed in strikes across Yemen​



At least 13 civilians were killed and nine injured in US strikes on Yemen’s capital Sanaa, according to the Houthi-run health ministry. In the northern province of Saada, the Houthi-run Al-Masirah TV said at least 11 others, including four children, had been killed, and 14 injured.

The Houthis’ political bureau described the attacks as a “war crime.”
“Our Yemeni armed forces are fully prepared to respond to escalation with escalation,” it said in a statement.

Images online showed plumes of black smoke over the area of the Sanaa airport complex, which includes a sprawling military facility. The Houthis also reported airstrikes early Sunday on the provinces of Hodeida, Bayda, and Marib.
