Red Sea: Why have some EU nations distanced themselves from the US operation against the Houthis?
European Union allies have been reluctant to back a United States-led naval operation to safeguard ships from attacks by Houthi militants in the Red Sea.
U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has issued a direct and forceful warning to Iran following a serious incident involving a Houthi drone that forced the USS Harry S. Truman to take evasive action—resulting in the loss of an F-18 jet. Hegseth declared that Iran will “pay the consequence at the time and place of our choosing,” calling out Iran’s support for the Houthi terrorist group. Backed by President Trump’s retweet, this message signals a potential escalation as the U.S. vows to respond decisively to any further aggression in the Red Sea region.

Britain and the United States have carried out new joint airstrikes against Houthi targets in Yemen, marking the UK’s first publicized strike operation alongside the U.S. since the Trump era. RAF Typhoon jets targeted Houthi drone sites near Sanaa, in response to escalating attacks on commercial shipping and missiles fired toward Israel. These Iran-backed assaults have disrupted global trade in the Red Sea by over 50%. UK Defense Secretary John Healey warned the ongoing Houthi threat poses serious risks to regional stability, global shipping, and national economies. All RAF aircraft returned safely.

The U.S. Navy's Harry S. Truman may soon exit the Red Sea after enduring multiple strikes from Yemeni forces, including missiles and drones, in retaliation for U.S. airstrikes that targeted civilians. Yemeni defense sources report that the carrier could have been hit, forcing it to retreat. Meanwhile, a U.S. Navy Super Hornet jet fell into the sea amid the attack. With rising tensions in the region and ongoing missile threats, the Truman may follow other carriers that have withdrawn under pressure from Yemeni forces.

A $60 million U.S. Navy F/A-18E Super Hornet has been lost under mysterious circumstances in the Red Sea after what appears to be a high-intensity encounter involving the USS Harry S. Truman and Houthi forces. According to the U.S. Navy, the aircraft was under tow when the move crew lost control, sending it overboard — but questions are mounting. The incident comes amid escalating attacks on the Truman carrier group by Yemen’s Ansar Allah forces, sparking speculation of a potential strike rather than an accident. With rising tensions in the region and Truman’s recent history of close calls, experts are questioning the official narrative.

In a fresh act of aggression in the on-going tit-for-tat attacks between the U.S. and the Yemeni Houthis, U.S F-16s bombed 4 Yemen Provinces striking fear and anxiety in the minds of residents. Yemen has however remained steadfast in its support for the Palestinian cause and condemned the U.S strikes as a blatant violation of its sovereignty. With both sides refusing to back down there are fears rising that the Red Sea could become the theatre for a full-scale war.

U.S. President Donald Trump has declared he will only accept the total dismantlement of Iran’s nuclear program. Speaking on NBC’s Meet the Press, Trump dismissed the need for Iran’s civilian nuclear power, citing its vast oil reserves. This comes after talks with Iran were indefinitely postponed, amid rising tensions in the Middle East. Trump warned that a nuclear Iran could lead to global destruction. Meanwhile, Iran continues to deny pursuing weapons and accuses the U.S. of provocation, while Israel threatens retaliation over a Houthi missile strike.

Israel has ordered tens of thousands of reserve troops as it prepares a full-scale offensive to crush Hamas and control Gaza. New army chief vows to destroy all infrastructure, including tunnels and shelters. Amid fuel, food, and medical blockades, Gaza’s humanitarian system nears collapse. Meanwhile, President Trump warns Iran to stop backing Houthis after an airport strike. Minister Ben Gvir opposes aid while Israel delays ground invasion until Trump’s departure. Aid groups say Gaza is starving—but Tel Aviv insists aid will only resume “when necessary.”

The U.S. has unleashed a fresh wave of airstrikes on Yemen, intensifying military action after a missile hit Israel's Ben Gurion Airport. Sana'a became the primary target, with heavy bombardment hitting districts like Bani Matar and Bani Hushaysh, while shops in the commercial hub were damaged and 14 civilians injured. With over 1,000 strikes launched so far, Trump has warned Iran and the Houthis of severe consequences, promising that U.S. strikes will continue until Yemen halts its attacks on Israel.
