US airstrikes on Yemen’s Houthi rebels reportedly killed 33 and injured 80, marking one of the deadliest days since the campaign’s initiation under President Trump. Targeting the Ras Isa oil port, the strikes aimed to disrupt Houthi funding, though the US Central Command stated they were not intended to harm Yemeni civilians. Following threats from the Houthis against ships linked to Israel, the US campaign has intensified, with strikes now focusing on leadership and urban targets, amidst concerns over Iran’s nuclear advancements.
