U.S. Launches Aggressive Airstrikes to Secure Red Sea Shipping Lanes


President Donald Trump ordered “decisive and powerful” airstrikes against Houthi targets in Yemen. The operation, targeting what Trump described as “terrorists’ bases, leaders, and missile defenses,” aims to halt the Iran-backed Houthi rebels’ persistent attacks on international shipping lanes in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden. The move marks the first major foreign military action of Trump’s second term and comes with a sharp warning to Iran to cease its support for the Houthis—or face severe consequences.

In a statement posted to his Truth Social platform, Trump said the strikes were a necessary response to over a year of Houthi aggression that has disrupted global commerce and threatened American lives. “Today, I have ordered the United States Military to launch decisive and powerful Military action against the Houthi terrorists in Yemen,” Trump declared. “They have waged an unrelenting campaign of piracy, violence, and terrorism against American, and other, ships, aircraft, and drones.”

Previous Admin Failed


The president criticized the previous administration’s approach, asserting, “Joe Biden’s response was pathetically weak, so the unrestrained Houthis just kept going.” He pointed to specific incidents, including the fact that “the last American Warship to go through the Red Sea, four months ago, was attacked by the Houthis over a dozen times,” and emphasized the economic toll, claiming the assaults have “cost the U.S. and World Economy many BILLIONS of Dollars while, at the same time, putting innocent lives at risk.”

Reports from Yemen indicate that U.S. warplanes struck multiple Houthi-controlled sites in the capital, Sanaa, and the northern province of Saada on Saturday evening. The Houthi-run health ministry claimed at least 13 civilians were killed and nine injured in Sanaa alone, though these figures remain unverified by independent sources. Residents reported plumes of smoke rising over the Sanaa airport complex, a known military hub, as the operation unfolded.

Trump’s statement underscored the strategic importance of the targeted waterways, noting that “the Houthis have choked off shipping in one of the most important Waterways of the World, grinding vast swaths of Global Commerce to a halt, and attacking the core principle of Freedom of Navigation upon which International Trade and Commerce depends.” He vowed to use “overwhelming lethal force” until the Houthis cease their attacks, warning them directly: “YOUR TIME IS UP, AND YOUR ATTACKS MUST STOP, STARTING TODAY. IF THEY DON’T, HELL WILL RAIN DOWN UPON YOU LIKE NOTHING YOU HAVE EVER SEEN BEFORE!”

Stern Message for Iran 


The president also issued a stern message to Iran, the Houthis’ primary backer, demanding an immediate end to its support. “To Iran: Support for the Houthi terrorists must end IMMEDIATELY! Do NOT threaten the American People, their President, who has received one of the largest mandates in Presidential History, or Worldwide shipping lanes,” Trump stated. “If you do, BEWARE, because America will hold you fully accountable and, we won’t be nice about it!”

The Houthis, who have controlled much of northern Yemen since the country’s civil war intensified in 2014, have targeted over 100 merchant vessels with missiles and drones since late 2023, according to U.S. officials. These attacks, initially framed as solidarity with Hamas during the Israel-Gaza conflict, have sunk two ships, killed four sailors, and forced major shipping companies to reroute around southern Africa, significantly increasing costs. While a tenuous Gaza ceasefire in January 2025 brought a lull in Houthi maritime assaults, the group recently threatened to resume strikes on Israeli-linked vessels, prompting Trump’s swift response.

Biden Had Limited Success


Analysts note that this operation intensifies previous U.S. actions under the Biden administration, which conducted multiple rounds of strikes against Houthi targets with limited success in deterring their campaign. Unlike those efforts, which often involved coalition support from allies like the UK, Saturday’s strikes appear to be a unilateral U.S. effort, signaling a more aggressive stance under Trump’s leadership.

As the dust settles over Sanaa, the international community awaits Iran’s response and the Houthis’ next move. For now, Trump’s message is clear: the U.S. will no longer tolerate threats to its interests in the Red Sea.
