US continues military action against Houthi fighters in Yemen

Published: 18 January 2024 at 01:48

The US military has conducted another round of missile strikes against Houthi-controlled sites in Yemen, marking the fourth time in recent days that they have targeted the group. This comes after the US placed the Houthis back on its list of designated global terrorists, triggering sanctions meant to cut off financing. Despite these actions, the Houthis are still harassing commercial and military ships, with a drone attack on a US-owned vessel being the latest incident. The US has also warned Iran to stop providing weapons to the Houthis.
