Since then, US forces have conducted hundreds of strikes across Houthi-held territory. On Saturday, US warplanes bombed Yemen's cities of Sanaa and Hodeidah, targeting key infrastructure amid an intensifying campaign against the Houthis. The Houthis—officially known as Ansarallah—claim their actions are part of a 'solidarity campaign' with Palestinians in Gaza, vowing to continue targeting Israeli-linked vessels in the Red Sea and Arabian Sea until the war in Gaza ends. The US designates the Houthis as a 'terrorist' organization, accusing them of destabilizing the region and threatening global maritime trade.
