"Houthi Rebels Threaten Retaliation as US Warns Ships in Red Sea"

The US military conducted additional airstrikes on Houthi-controlled sites in Yemen after warning ships to avoid the Red Sea, targeting a radar site deemed a threat to maritime traffic. President Biden had warned of further strikes, and the US Navy cautioned American-flagged vessels to steer clear of the area. The strikes came in response to Houthi attacks on commercial ships and raised the prospect of wider conflict in a region already dealing with tensions. The US-led bombardment killed at least five people, and the Houthis vowed retaliation. The strikes drew condemnation from Iran, China, and Russia, while the US and its allies sought to prevent further escalation in the region.
