17 Houthi Members Killed in US Attack – Latest World News
The conflict between Iran-backed Houthis and US and UK forces in Yemen shows no signs of abating. In a recent statement by the Houthis, it was revealed that 17 Houthi members had died in US attacks. The group held a funeral ceremony in the capital Sanaa for those members who lost their lives in the joint operations with the USA and England.
The Houthis also declared their intention to target all ships bound for or linked to Israel until the attacks in Gaza come to an end. This announcement has further escalated tensions in the region.
Since November 19, the Houthis’ attacks in the Red Sea have had a significant impact on the global supply chain. In response to these attacks on commercial and warships, the USA has conducted multiple air strikes on military sites belonging to the Houthis.
Just last week, the Houthis admitted to launching missiles at US and British ships in the region. The US Central Command (CENTCOM) confirmed that the group had fired 6 anti-ship ballistic missiles at 2 ships passing through the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden, causing damage to one of the vessels.
The situation in Yemen remains highly volatile, with ongoing clashes between the Houthis and US and UK forces. The international community continues to monitor the situation closely, as concerns grow over the potential for further escalation and the impact on global trade and security.
