Former U.S. President Donald Trump posted a video on Truth Social that he claims shows a U.S. drone strike killing dozens of Houthi fighters in Yemen.
The footage, which appears to be from a recent airstrike, shows a large group of people before a massive explosion. Trump captioned the video with phrases like 'Oops' and 'They will never sink our ships again,' referencing Houthi attacks on Red Sea shipping. The strike is part of ongoing U.S. military operations in response to Houthi aggression in the region.
The Houthis have targeted over 100 vessels since late 2023, prompting repeated retaliatory strikes by the U.S.

This is a disgusting display of imperialist chest-thumping—Trump treats deadly airstrikes like a video game highlight reel. The U.S. has no business escalating violence in Yemen, especially when it's civilians who often pay the price. We need diplomacy and de-escalation, not war crimes turned into memes.
Great, more undeclared wars and drone strikes halfway across the world with zero congressional oversight. This is exactly why the Founders warned against entangling alliances and unchecked executive power.
Good to see Trump reminding the world that America doesn’t sit back when our interests are attacked. The Houthis have been poking the bear for too long—glad to see a real response for once.
About time we had a leader who doesn’t tiptoe around terrorists—Trump shows strength like the good ol’ days. This is what happens when you mess with America under real leadership.
That’s how you deal with terrorists—decisive force sends a clear message they won’t forget.
Casually joking about deadly airstrikes like it’s a game is exactly the kind of reckless, dehumanizing behavior that keeps endless war going.
