What to know about Yemen’s Houthi rebels as the US steps up attacks on Iran-backed group

Associated Press  

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — The United States under President Donald Trump has launched a new campaign of intense airstrikes targeting Yemen’s Houthi rebels. Trump, writing on his social media platform Truth Social, said his administration targeted the Houthis over their “unrelenting campaign of piracy, violence and terrorism.” He noted the disruption Houthi attacks have caused through the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, key waterways for energy and cargo shipments between Asia and Europe through Egypt’s Suez Canal. The Houthis said last week they’ll again target “Israeli” ships traveling through Mideast waterways like the Gulf of Aden and the Red Sea, because of Israel’s blocking of aid to the Gaza Strip. Trump’s national security adviser Mike Waltz, speaking to ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday, warned Guard officials training the Houthis “will be on the table too” as possible targets for attack.
