PM Rishi Sunak: Yemen strikes were a last resort

The prime minister says he "will not hesitate" to protect British security after defence secretary Grant Shapps refused to rule out further action against the Houthis to safeguard the Red Sea.

Rishi Sunak, who will address MPs about the decision to take part in joint airstrikes in Yemen with the US, said the military action was a "last resort" designed to "restore stability" in the region.

It was his 20th visit to Canada, but his first as King.

U.S-Israel Alliance Eyes Houthi Targets |B-2 Stealth Bombers on Standby After Missile Strikes Israel

Tensions flare in the Middle East after Yemen's Houthi rebels launched a ballistic missile towards Israel, triggering air raid sirens and prompting a sharp U.S. response. In a fiery statement, U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee threatened to unleash B-2 Spirit stealth bombers on Yemen, escalating fears of a broader conflict. With Israel intercepting the missile and vowing retaliation, could the region be on the brink of a multi-front war? The B-2, capable of deep-penetration precision strikes, now looms as a symbol of American resolve.

Israel Threatens Yemen With Tehran-Style Strikes After Missile Intercept - "Will Cut Off That Hand" [Video]

Israel Threatens Yemen With Tehran-Style Strikes After Missile Intercept - "Will Cut Off That Hand"

srael’s Defense Minister Israel Katz has issued a chilling warning to Yemen’s Houthi rebels after a ballistic missile was intercepted by Israeli defenses late Tuesday. Katz declared, “Yemen will be treated like Tehran,” referencing recent joint Israeli-U.S. airstrikes on suspected nuclear sites in Iran. As air raid sirens rang out across central Israel and civilians scrambled for shelters, Katz warned: “Whoever raises a hand against Israel – that hand will be cut off.” The intercepted missile, launched from Houthi-controlled Yemen, marks yet another escalation in the widening Middle East conflict. With Iran-backed militias in Lebanon, Iraq, and now Yemen intensifying attacks, analysts warn of a growing multi-front war. Will Israel carry out a preemptive strike on Yemen? Could U.S. bombers return to the skies?

Houthis BLASTS Israel’s Beersheba Key Sites With Hypersonic Missile | Civilians FLEE To Shelters

Just days after a major ceasefire between Iran and Israel, the Houthi rebels have resumed their missile attacks. Air raid sirens sounded in southern Israel after a ballistic missile, launched from Yemen, reportedly struck near Beersheba. Houthi leadership claims the strike is retaliation for Israel’s ongoing operations in Gaza. With over 25 missiles and drones launched this month alone, the group warns of continued attacks until Israeli offensives stop. The renewed violence threatens to derail ceasefire negotiations, even as President Trump promises a Gaza truce “by next week.” #IsraelUnderAttack #HouthiForces #MiddleEastCrisis #MissileStrike #GazaBlockade #Airstrike #BreakingNews #YemenVsIsrael #BenGurionAirport #DroneAttack #MahdiAlMashat #MilitaryTensions #HypersonicMissile #ConflictUpdate #AirTrafficDisrupted #InvestorWarning #RetaliationStrike #MiddleEastWar #GazaSupport #IDFAirports #InternationalCrisis #NoFlyZone #AirportStrike #YemenNews #IsraelNews #DefenseAlert #AirRaid #GlobalTensions Also Read 'You Got Beat To Hell': Donald Trump On Iran's Victory Claim :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/you-got-beat-to-hell-donald-trump-on-irans-victory-claim-7785327.html?ref=DMDesc Mystery Shrouds Over Supreme Leader Khamenei’s Whereabouts As Iran Faces Military Crisis :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mystery-shrouds-over-supreme-leader-khamenei-s-whereabouts-as-iran-faces-military-crisis-7783667.html?ref=DMDesc Iranian Citizens Contemplate Future After 12-Day War and US-Brokered Ceasefire :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/12-day-war-ceasefire-iran-future-concerns-011-7783479.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.103~GR.125~

Houthis Vow to Sink U.S Warships | Iran Blames Israel for 'Great Crime'|Khamenei Warns of Punishment

Tensions in the Middle East are spiraling. Iran has denied launching the missile intercepted by Israel near Eilat, claiming it was fired by Yemen’s Houthi rebels. Meanwhile, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei warns Israel of severe punishment for what he called a “great crime” — referring to Israel and America’s recent strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites. The Houthis have issued direct threats against U.S. warships in the Red Sea, declaring full support for Tehran and vowing retaliation. With Iran’s next missile wave still pending under “Operation True Promise-3,” the region is bracing for a major escalation.

Iran Prepares MISSILE STRIKES On U.S Bases As Trump Threatens To KILL Khamenei | Tehran's BIG threat

According to a New York Times report, Iran has positioned missiles and other military assets to strike U.S. bases in the region if Washington joins Israel’s war against Tehran. As the war enters its 6th day, Iran has already launched heavy missile attacks on Tel Aviv, with devastating impacts. Security experts warn that if the U.S. targets Iran’s underground Fordo nuclear site, Tehran may retaliate by mining the Strait of Hormuz and escalating Red Sea attacks through Houthi forces. Fears of a wider Middle East war are growing by the hour. #IronDome #FatehMissile #KheibarShekan #HypersonicMissiles #HaifaUnderAttack #IranMissileStrike #TruePromiseIII #IsraelIranConflict #MiddleEastWar #HypersonicMissiles #HaifaNews #TehranStrikes #IDFResponse #IranianMissiles #RafaelFactory #HaifaBlackout #OilRefineryHit #AirDefenseFailure #HajQasem #MissileWar #BreakingNews #IsraelNews ~HT.318~ED.103~GR.124~

$1.5Bn Spent, 30 Warships deployed | Has the U.S. Achieved anything in its Fight against Houthis?

The U.S. military campaign against the Houthis in Yemen is proving costly and largely ineffective. With over $1.5 billion spent on munitions, 30 warships deployed—including the USS Eisenhower—and advanced assets like F-35C jets, Washington faces limited success. Houthi forces, backed by Iran, have launched over 325 attacks and disrupted $1 trillion in trade via asymmetric warfare. As the Red Sea crisis deepens, analysts warn this prolonged conflict may become America’s next Vietnam.

Hegseth Says Houthi Red Sea Defeat As 'Tailored Operation' | Critics Slam Hegseth As ‘Attempt To...’

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has described America’s widely perceived failure against Yemen’s Houthis as a “tailored operation,” claiming the goal was freedom of navigation and not the protection of Israeli-linked vessels. Notably, Hegseth made no mention of Israel during his statement. Critics argue the Pentagon has rebranded a humiliating military result, after months of failed deterrence against Houthi strikes in the Red Sea. The Pentagon's shifting rhetoric has sparked fresh debate over U.S. credibility, especially in light of its deep alliance with Israel. #Hegseth #HouthiAttacks #RedSeaConflict #PentagonNews #USNavy #MiddleEastCrisis #IsraelAlly #TailoredOperation #MilitaryFailure #HegsethStatement #FreedomOfNavigation #RedSeaWar #HouthisVsUS #USMilitary #IsraelNotMentioned #GazaWarImpact #USDefeat #Geopolitics #DefenseNews #YemenConflict ~HT.318~ED.102~GR.125~

Houthis RAIN HELLFIRE on Israel | Launch BALLISTIC Missile after ‘HOT SUMMER’ Warning

The Houthis launched a major ballistic missile strike on Israel Thursday, triggering air raid sirens nationwide. Israeli forces intercepted the warhead, neutralizing the threat. The attack followed Israeli airstrikes on Sana’a International Airport and a stern “Hot Summer” warning from Houthi leader Al-Mashat, who threatened intensified missile barrages and warned airlines flying to Ben Gurion Airport. Houthis claimed 22 operations against Israel in May alone, reaffirming support for Gaza and vowing to escalate attacks amid ongoing Red Sea tensions. #IsraelUnderAttack #HouthiMissiles #YemenConflict #GazaWar #BallisticMissile #RedSeaTensions #HotSummerWarning #SanaaAirportStrike #MiddleEastConflict #Houthis #IDF #BenGurionThreat #AirRaidSirens #InterceptedMissile #IsraelDefense #GazaSupport #RegionalEscalation #AlMashat #MissileStrike #AerialThreat #GulfOfAden #ArabianSea #ShippingAttacks #MiddleEastWar #IranProxy #YemenIsraelTensions #HouthisVsIsrael #TerrorThreat #MayAttacks #AirSecurityAlert #MilitaryEscalation Also Read Shots Fired Outside CIA Headquarters Hours After Israeli Embassy Staff Killings :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/shots-fired-outside-cia-headquarters-hours-after-israeli-embassy-staff-killings-4161067.html?ref=DMDesc Hamas Releases US-Israeli Hostage Edan Alexander Ahead of Trump’s Middle East Visit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-releases-us-israeli-hostage-edan-alexander-ahead-of-trump-s-middle-east-visit-4151571.html?ref=DMDesc Immense Pressure From Families Of Hostages: Netanyahu Says Israel Has To Continue Fighting In Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/immense-pressure-from-families-of-hostages-netanyahu-says-israel-has-to-continue-fighting-in-gaza-4128785.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.336~
