"US-UK Coalition Strikes Houthi Targets in Yemen After 27th Ship Attack"

The US and UK conducted strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen in response to repeated Houthi attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea. The strikes, involving fighter jets and Tomahawk missiles, targeted radar systems, drone and missile storage and launch sites. The action reflects growing international concern over threats to critical waterways. The US had been cautious about striking the Houthis to avoid escalating tensions in the region, but ongoing attacks on international shipping compelled the coalition to act. The strikes come amid heightened tensions in the Middle East, with the US emphasizing that the action is defensive and warning of consequences if the attacks continue.
