In April 2025, tensions between the United States and Yemen's Houthi rebels escalated sharply. The Houthis have been attacking commercial ships in the Red Sea, claiming the strikes are in support of Palestinians during the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. These attacks have severely disrupted global trade routes.
In response, the U.S. launched a series of airstrikes targeting Houthi positions, mainly around Yemen's capital, Sanaa. These strikes resulted in multiple casualties and aimed to weaken the Houthis' military strength. Additionally, the U.S. deployed B-2 stealth bombers to Diego Garcia, showing readiness to respond to threats from Iran and its allies.
The Houthis also claimed to have attacked U.S. naval ships like the USS Laboon, but U.S. forces successfully intercepted the threats. Meanwhile, President Trump signed an executive order to begin labeling the Houthis as a Foreign Terrorist Organization, increasing international pressure on the group.
