Movies re: Houthi Strikes On U.S Warship & Oil Tanker are Worst Mideast Sea Conflict in Decades

British and US Troops Launch Strikes Against Houthi Targets in Yemen For Second Time:

Fighter jets, warships and submarines pound missile launch facilities across the country in retaliation for Iran-backed militia's Red Sea ship attacks

MailOnline News 23 JAN 2024




































British and US forces have hit Houthi missile sites in Yemen with a second wave of joint airstrikes aimed at 'dealing another blow' to the Iran-backed group as it continues to terrorise ships in the Red Sea, officials have said.


Warship and submarine-launched Tomahawk missiles, as well as fighter jets, have been used to take out Houthi missile storage sites and launchers, according to US defence officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

A joint statement from the UK, US, Australia, Bahrain and a number of other nations said they had 'conducted an additional round of proportionate and necessary strikes against eight Houthi targets in Yemen'.

'Today's strike specifically targeted a Houthi underground storage site and locations associated with the Houthis' missile and air surveillance capabilities,' the statement added.

The Ministry of Defence said four Typhoon fighter jets, supported by a pair of Voyager refuelling tankers, flew from Cyrus to join US forces in the airstrikes.

Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and US president Joe Biden held a phone call in which they agreed to continue efforts to 'deter and disrupt' ongoing attacks by the Houthis on commercial and military vessels.
