The Houthi forces have increased attacks on American ships in the Red Sea since October 2023 in response to the war in Gaza.

The video, which resembles images taken from a military drone or a plane to stroll, shows several people standing together in an oval training. The view of the eyes of the bird becomes violent when these people are apparently struck by a strike while a shiny flash appears, followed by a huge cloud of dust and smoke.
The video then zoards to a larger angle, showing several standing vehicles near the alleged attack site while smoke continues to blow.
In the video of the video, President Trump wrote: “These Houthis gathered for instructions on an attack. Oops, there will be no attack on these Houthis! They will never drive our ships again! ”
Several American strikes in Yemen have reported
Several United States strikes on the rebel group have been reported in Yemen in recent weeks. These strikes come in response to attacks by the rebellious group against the Red Sea bride.
An American strike struck areas controlled by rebels on Wednesday in Yemen, which killed around six people across the country according to Houthis, reported Associated Press.
The Houthis attack the American ships crossing the Red Sea since the war between Israel and Hamas broke out in October 2023 to support Gaza. The United States has now launched an air strike campaign against Houthi rebel fighters for lowering several American ships. According to Houthi figures, 67 people have been killed so far in the United States.
The United States considers attacks as a means of weakening Iran, which supports Houthis and its advanced nuclear program. Referring to the recent American strike sequence on the Houthis, the white house press secretary Karoline Leavitt, said on Tuesday: “Iran is incredibly weakened as a result of these attacks, and we saw that they have withdrawn Houthi leaders.”
“They withdrew critical members who launched strikes on naval ships and commercial ships and this operation will not stop until the freedom of navigation in this region is restored.”
