Trump’s Biggest THREAT to Houthis| Trump Tells Israel US Will FINISH HOUTHIS Alone| ‘Leave It To Us’

Trump has pledged that U.S will take decisive action to eliminate the Houthi threat, signaling a significant shift in his foreign policy stance. Speaking to Israeli officials, Trump assured them that the United States would handle the Houthi rebellion independently, stating, "Leave it to us—we’ll finish the Houthis alone." This declaration comes amid growing tensions in the Middle East, with the U.S. military ramping up airstrikes against Houthi positions in Yemen, including military complexes in Hodeidah and Saada provinces. Trump's comments appear to emphasize the U.S.'s commitment to countering the Iran-backed rebel group, which has increasingly targeted both American and Israeli interests in the region #TrumpHouthis #HouthisAttack #DonaldTrump #HouthisYemen #TrumpAttacksHouthis #HouthisRedSeaAttack #HouthisAttackRedSea #HouthiAttacks #HouthiRebels #TrumpVsHouthis #TrumpOnHouthis #USAttacksHouthis #TrumpAttackOnHouthis #TrumpStrikesHouthis #USHouthisAttack Also Read Trump Rejects Claims of Elon Musk’s Secret Pentagon Briefing on China Strategy :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-rejects-claims-of-elon-musk-s-secret-pentagon-briefing-on-china-strategy-4100633.html?ref=DMDesc Donald Trump Signs Executive Order To Dismantle Education Department, Advancing Campaign Promise :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-signs-executive-order-to-dismantle-education-department-advancing-campaign-promise-4100585.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Praises India-US Ties But Highlights 'The Only Problem': 'They’re One Of The Highest...' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-praises-india-us-ties-but-underscores-the-only-problem-they-re-one-of-the-highest-4100479.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~HT.336~GR.344~
