Yemen: US military destroys Houthi drones and missiles again. Just a few days ago, the militia shelled a merchant ship in the Red Sea.
The militia is acting in solidarity with Hamas and is directing its attacks off the Yemeni coast on freighters with an alleged Israeli connection. One of the most important shipping routes for world trade runs along Yemen, through which freighters from the Indian Ocean reach the Mediterranean via the Suez Canal in Egypt. The US military responded on Saturday night with extensive air strikes against pro-Iranian militia positions in Iraq and Syria.
