American forces reportedly bombed the Israeli-linked cargo ship Galaxy Leader off the coast of Yemen, according to Al-Mayadeen TV.

The U.S. military also conducted widespread aerial strikes across Yemen, targeting multiple areas including the Ras Isa Oil Port, Kamaran Island, and Sanaa, reportedly injuring civilians including two children. These strikes come in response to Houthi attacks on strategic Israeli sites and a U.S. aircraft carrier in the Red Sea.#houthis #galaxyleader #unitedstates #yemen

Treasury secretary Bessent seen in race to succeed US Fed's Powell
A growing chorus of advisers inside and outside the Trump administration are pushing another name to serve as the next chair of the Federal Reserve: Treasury secretary Scott Bessent. US President Donald Trump said Friday he would name a successor "very soon" to replace Jerome Powell, whose term as Fed chair ends in May 2026. The small list of candidates under consideration has included Kevin Warsh, a former Fed official whom Trump interviewed for the Treasury secretary role in Nov, according to people familiar with the matter.
