Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi warned that continued U.S. aggression against Yemen would lead to "escalatory options" and more painful retaliation from the rebels. This follows U.S. President Donald Trump's recent airstrikes on Houthi positions, which killed at least 53 people, including children, and injured many others. Trump’s airstrikes are part of a broader campaign to pressure Iran, the Houthis’ main backer, with Trump linking Houthi actions to Tehran and threatening consequences for further attacks. In response, Houthi supporters rallied in several cities, vowing revenge against the U.S. and Israel. The United Nations has called for a halt to military activities in Yemen. Meanwhile, the Houthis’ maritime attacks on over 100 merchant vessels between November 2023 and January 2024 raised their profile in the Arab world. Trump also warned Iran against arming the Houthis, alleging a reduction in Tehran's military support for the group.
