US will keep hitting Houthis until shipping attacks stop, Hegseth says

Hindustan Times  

By Phil Stewart, Mohammed Ghobari and Gabriella Borter US will keep hitting Houthis until shipping attacks stop, Hegseth says WASHINGTON/ADEN, Yemen -The United States will keep attacking Yemen's Houthis until they end attacks on shipping, the U.S. defense secretary said on Sunday, as the Iran-aligned group signalled it could escalate in response to deadly U.S. strikes the day before. The Houthi movement's political bureau described the attacks as a "war crime" and said Houthi forces were ready to "meet escalation with escalation", while Moscow urged Washington to cease the strikes. U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told Fox News: "The minute the Houthis say we'll stop shooting at your ships, we'll stop shooting at your drones, this campaign will end, but until then it will be unrelenting." Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said the U.S. government had "no authority, or business, dictating Iranian foreign policy".
