In a dramatic escalation of tensions in the Middle East, the United States launched a series of airstrikes in Yemen, targeting Houthi rebel strongholds. Former President Donald Trump vowed to put an end to Houthi attacks, claiming they threaten global stability. The strikes, which took place late last night, reportedly hit key rebel positions, but the Houthis have promised retaliation.

Experts fear this could ignite a larger regional conflict. The Biden administration had previously exercised restraint, but Trump's aggressive stance signals a shift in U.S. policy. The international community remains on edge, watching how Iran, a key Houthi ally, will respond.
