"Houthi Rebels' Ongoing Attacks on U.S.-Owned Ships Prompt Further U.S. Strikes in Yemen"

Houthi rebels in Yemen launched missiles at a U.S.-owned merchant vessel, the M/V Chem Ranger, marking the third such attack this week. The Pentagon confirmed that the missiles landed in the water near the ship with no reported injuries or damage. The U.S. has responded with strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen, and President Biden indicated that these strikes will continue. The State Department has reclassified the Houthis as a "specially designated global terrorist group," and the White House has accused Iran of being involved in the attacks, despite Tehran's denials.
