Red Sea Threat: US and UK airstrikes on Yemen can embolden Houthis, says senior analyst | Oneindia
The United States and the United Kingdom launched airstrikes on Thursday night targeting Houthi facilities in Yemen.
This marks the first time during the war that the US and its allies have directly attacked Yemeni territory in retaliation for the Houthi group's actions in the Red Sea.
However, analysts are suggesting that rather than being deterred, the Houthis might be further emboldened by these attacks.
Despite not being internationally recognised as the government of Yemen, the group controls significant portions of the country, and experts believe that the increased attention from the world's sole superpower could elevate their regional and domestic profile.
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 first attack occurred late Sunday night, narrowly missing the vessel's stern. Despite warnings, the ship continued its course, prompting a second strike the following day, landing just a nautical mile away.
While no casualties or damage were reported, the incident highlights the Houthis' growing maritime campaign, which they claim is in solidarity with Gaza. 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 shocking escalation, Yemen’s Houthi forces launched a surprise bombing attack on Israel’s vital Eilat Port, catching the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) off guard. The assault targeted the strategically crucial southern port, a key hub for Israeli trade and military logistics. Initial reports indicate extensive damage, with emergency services scrambling to contain the situation. The unexpected strike by the Houthis has heightened tensions in the region, leaving Israel’s military stunned and raising questions about the readiness of its defence systems. The attack marks a significant new front in the ongoing conflict.

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. While the US accuses Iran of supporting the rebels, the Houthis are leveraging their military capabilities to advance political demands.

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. He criticised Arab regimes for their ties with Israel and urged a mass uprising in Yemen to show solidarity with Palestine, calling for nationwide protests against the U.S-Israeli aggression.

The Pentagon confirmed Houthi fighters launched multiple drones and missiles at US warships USS Stockdale and USS Spruance near Yemen. All attacks were successfully repelled with no damages or casualties. The Houthis claimed an 8-hour assault, including targeting USS Abraham Lincoln, which the Pentagon denied. Since November 2023, Houthis have attacked over 90 vessels in solidarity with Palestinians, prompting US-UK retaliatory strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen.
