Tensions in the Red Sea escalated dramatically as Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels targeted the Panama-flagged bulk carrier Anadolu S with two missile strikes in a matter of hours.

The Bahrain-based Combined Task Force confirmed the strikes, raising concerns over shipping safety in the region. This bold assault underscores the escalating risks for international vessels navigating the Red Sea amid intensifying regional tensions.

In a fiery televised address, Yemen's Ansarullah leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi accused the U.S. of complicity in Israel's ongoing military actions in Gaza and Lebanon, claiming American-made weapons are fueling a broader campaign of extermination in West Asia. Houthi warned of potential strikes on U.S. warships if they entered the Red Sea, while hailing Yemeni forces for their successful naval attack on the aircraft carrier Abraham.

Pentagon is alarmed by Yemen's Houthi rebels' rapidly advancing military capabilities, with top weapons buyer Bill LaPlante expressing shock at their sophisticated missile and drone arsenal. Despite US denials of successful attacks on naval vessels, Houthis claim to have disrupted maritime operations.

The US military has launched a series of airstrikes targeting sites in Syria associated with Iran-aligned groups, a day after an assault on America’s largest command centre in the region. The strikes, conducted by US Central Command, were in retaliation for recent attacks on US personnel stationed in Syria. Centcom emphasised that the action was a direct response to the escalating violence aimed at American forces, underscoring the US's commitment to protecting its troops and partners in the region.
The airstrikes, which hit multiple sites believed to be linked to Iranian-backed militias, aim to degrade the ability of these groups to plan and execute future attacks against US forces. The US military presence in Syria, primarily focused on combating ISIS remnants, has faced increasing threats from Iran-aligned militias, complicating efforts to stabilise the region. Centcom's statement reinforced that such attacks on US forces would not be tolerated, sending a strong message to Tehran-backed militants. The escalation comes amid growing tensions in Syria, where Iran-backed groups maintain a significant presence, particularly in the east.
