VS belooft Jemenitische Houthi's te blijven aanvallen

March 17, 2025 - The United States has vowed to continue attacks on Yemen’s Houthi rebels until the Iran-backed group stops targeting military and commercial shipping in the Red Sea.

The airstrikes, which the Houthi-run health ministry said killed at least 53 people, are the biggest U.S. military operation in the Middle East since President Donald Trump took office in January. One U.S. official told Reuters the campaign might continue for weeks.

The Houthis’ military spokesperson on Sunday said, without offering evidence, that the group had targeted U.S. aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman and its warships in the Red Sea with ballistic missiles and drones in response to the U.S. attacks, according to Reuters.
