The U.S. has vowed to maintain airstrikes against Yemen's Houthi rebels, until they stop targeting international shipping. This commitment comes as U.S. forces carry out ongoing operations in the region.
The United States has vowed to continue airstrikes against Yemen's Houthi rebels until they cease attacks on international shipping.
U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirmed the ongoing operations on Sunday, after fighter jets were seen taking off in a video released by U.S. Central Command.
The strikes follow Washington's announcement that it would keep targeting the Houthis until their actions against shipping end.
Yemen reported that the U.S. launched two strikes on Hodeidah on Monday.
In response, Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Sarea says that their forces have launched a second attack on the U.S. aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman in the northern Red Sea. The attack involved ballistic missiles and drones.
“The Yemeni Armed Forces succeeded in thwarting a hostile attack the enemy was preparing to launch against our country. Its warplanes were forced to return from their launching point after (the Yemeni Armed Forces) launching a number of missiles and drones at the aircraft carrier and several of its warships,” he stated.
The U.S. airstrikes, which have been described as the most significant military action in the Middle East since President Donald Trump took office, reportedly killed at least 53 people.
While U.S. warplanes intercepted and destroyed 11 Houthi drones on Sunday, none of the drones posed a direct threat to the Truman, according to U.S. officials.
