US and UK carry out airstrikes against Houthis in Yemen.
CNN reported:
“The US military has launched strikes against multiple Houthi targets in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen, a US official told CNN. The strikes are from fighter jets and Tomahawk missiles.
The strikes are a sign of the growing international alarm over the threat to one of the world’s most critical waterways.
For weeks, the US had sought to avoid direct strikes on Yemen because of the risk of escalation in a region already simmering with tension, but the ongoing Houthi attacks on international shipping compelled the coalition to act.”
