Trump Not Stopping Against Houthis
President Donald Trump recently warned Ansarallah, also known as the Houthis, that his administration will continue striking their military assets until they cease their aggressive behavior.
The Houthis, an Iran-backed Yemeni terror group, have been targeting US, Israeli, and allies’ ships since Hamas’s October 7th, 2023, attacks.
Houthi forces executed daily drone and missile attacks against US military and commercial ships and increasingly directly attacked Israel’s civilian population.
Does Texas have a constitutional right to defy Supreme Court on protecting its border?
During former President Joe Biden’s administration, it is estimated the Houthis attacked US military and commercial ships over 300 times.
President Biden had been criticized for refusing to harness America’s full military might to deter Houthi attacks.
In early March, President Trump ordered a military operation to inflict severe damage on the Houthis' military capabilities.
Since then, American and allied forces have completed daily airstrikes on key Houthi leadership and military sites.
