Summary

U.S. airstrikes on Houthi-held areas of Yemen killed at least 31 and injured 101, according to the Houthi health ministry.

The strikes followed renewed Houthi attacks on shipping, which they say are in response to Israel’s blockade of Gaza.

A Houthi spokesperson vowed retaliation, stating, “Our response will not be delayed.” Trump warned Iran to stop supporting the Houthis, while Iran distanced itself from the group.

The conflict has disrupted Red Sea shipping, prompting the U.S. to redesignate the Houthis as a terrorist organization earlier this month.

    Yes, the people standing up to genocide.

    Say some words about headscarves and trans people while America and Israel are actively massacring the very people you are pretending to defend… You must care so much about them.

      It’s a lot less simple than you’re trying to make it out to be. I don’t support what Israel and the US are doing either, for your information.

      Just don’t see how Iran or any of their proxies should be idolized considering their longstanding abuse of human rights among even just their own.

      They do much worse than just put women in headscarves, if you’re not aware.

        It is a lot simper than you are trying to make it out to be. People hold a country of people who are victim of the previous genocide and is now standing up to a new one to an impossibly high standard, while the country genociding all over the world is never held to the same standard.

        The only reason it is not black and white because it is brown and white.
