US fighter jets have carried out a series of air raids across Yemen, killing at least 32 people after President Donald Trump warned the Houthi group not to attack ships passing through the Red Sea.
According to the latest statistics from the Houthi-run Health Ministry, at least 101 have been injured in the US air raids, said Al Jazeera’s Mohammed Al Attab reporting from Sanaa.
The US raids, the most significant military action since Trump’s return to power in January, came after Yemen’s Houthis threatened to resume raids on Israeli-linked ships in the Red Sea over Israel’s blockade on Gaza.
The US attacks, which began on Saturday and continued into the early hours of Sunday, on the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, as well as areas in Saada and al-Bayda killed 32 people and wounded 101, according to the ministry of health.
Earlier, spokesperson for the ministry of health Anis al-Asbahi said that most of the casualties were “children and women”.
The victims in Saada included four children and a woman. According to Yemeni media, US forces also launched attacks in the provinces of Hajjah, Marib, Dhamar, and Taiz.
The Houthi group warned that the strikes “will not pass without response”. The Houthi website slammed what it called “US-British aggression” and Washington’s “criminal brutality”

Trump’s threats​

Trump, in a post on social media, promised to “use overwhelming lethal force” and ordered Iran to “immediately” cut its support.
“Your time is up, and your attacks must stop, starting today. If they don’t, hell will rain down upon you like nothing you have ever seen before,” the US president said in a statement on Truth Social, his social media site.
“I have ordered the US military today to launch a decisive and powerful military operation against the Houthi terrorists in Yemen,” he said, adding that Washington “will use overwhelming lethal force until we have achieved our objective”.


US shot down 11 Houthi drones: Official​

US aircraft shot down 11 drones fired on Sunday by the Houthis, a US official claimed to Reuters.
The official said that the drones did not come close to the USS Harry S Truman, an aircraft carrier that the Houthis earlier said they had attacked.
The military also tracked a Houthi missile that the official said had failed in flight and splashed down into the sea.
The official added that the US took no action in response to the missile because it was not deemed a threat.

That didn't last long.

I don't actually know why anyone was pretending Trump was anti-war or anything, no US President can afford to be a pacifist, I'm actually kinda glad Trump isn't one.

But his MAGA base must be furious.
 

US says airstrikes against Houthis in Yemen will continue indefinitely​

Strikes began on Saturday with the aim of punishing Iran-backed armed group for attacks on Red Sea shipping

Official White House photos showed the president, wearing a Trump-branded golf shirt, watching the airstrikes on a display screen identified as being in Florida; video posted by social media users suggested Trump had earlier in the day been at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach and at the nearby Trump International golf club.

The Mostly Peaceful President Golf watching strikes from his resort in Florida.
 
I think Trump will order more next strikes.
Yemen is dangerous area....

Trump might offer Israel and Europe to participate in bombings.
 
They've already said the strikes will "continue indefinitely".

It has been described as a "large scale operation".

I wonder where they got that wording from.
Huh. Imagine that. I'm sure this has nothing to do with it.


In a January 2024 recording, Israeli politician Avi Lipkin was stating: “… eventually, our borders will extend from Lebanon to the Great Desert, which is Saudi Arabia, and then from the Mediterranean to the Euphrates. And who is on the other side of the Euphrates? The Kurds! And the Kurds are friends. So we have Mediterranean behind us, the Kurds in front of us, Lebanon, which really needs the umbrella of protection of Israel, and then we’re gonna take, I believe we’re gonna take Mecca, Medina and Mount Sinai, and to purify those places”
 
It appears the Left is choosing the Pro-Houthi / Pro-Iran side of things.

Give over.

Criticising nonsensical right wing rhetoric and holding it to account after an election isn't the same as supporting Houthis.

You guys are so soft.

Trump was never going to avoid wars. Anyone that figured he would is a simpleton.
 
Bombing Yemen same year as he became president?

Sounds like someone is looking to get that Nobel Peace Prize

I hope President Trump applies earth scorched policy in that place.
