US military strikes Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen
US military forces conducted a self-defense strike against Houthi unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and a ground control station in Yemen. The strike was in response to an immediate threat posed to ships passing through the Bab-el-Mandeb strait. The US recently reclassified the Houthi militants in Yemen as a terrorist organization, allowing for more effective financial restrictions on the group. Iran-backed proxy groups, including the Houthis, have launched numerous rocket and drone attacks on US bases in Iraq and Syria.
