U.S. President Donald Trump has launched a series of military strikes against Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen, citing their attacks on commercial vessels in the Red Sea.
The strikes, which targeted key Houthi positions, mark the most significant U.S. military action in the region during Trump's second term. At least nine civilians were reported killed, according to Yemen’s Houthi-run Health Ministry. Trump issued a stern warning to Iran, demanding it cease its support for the Houthis or face further consequences.
The escalation raises concerns over broader regional tensions and the security of global trade routes.
