Summary

U.S. airstrikes on Houthi-held areas of Yemen killed at least 31 and injured 101, according to the Houthi health ministry.

The strikes followed renewed Houthi attacks on shipping, which they say are in response to Israel’s blockade of Gaza.

A Houthi spokesperson vowed retaliation, stating, “Our response will not be delayed.” Trump warned Iran to stop supporting the Houthis, while Iran distanced itself from the group.

The conflict has disrupted Red Sea shipping, prompting the U.S. to redesignate the Houthis as a terrorist organization earlier this month.

      Yes, the people standing up to genocide.

      Say some words about headscarves and trans people while America and Israel are actively massacring the very people you are pretending to defend… You must care so much about them.

        It’s a lot less simple than you’re trying to make it out to be. I don’t support what Israel and the US are doing either, for your information.

        Just don’t see how Iran or any of their proxies should be idolized considering their longstanding abuse of human rights among even just their own.

        They do much worse than just put women in headscarves, if you’re not aware.

        America and Israel are conducting a genocide. Therefore the people risking their lives to stand up to America and Israel are better than America.
