Houthi Response to US and UK Strikes:

Following a round of joint US-UK strikes that targeted 18 Houthi sites last night, including weapon and missile warehouses, offensive drones, air defense systems, radars, and a helicopter, the Iran-backed group in Yemen vowed to escalate "its attacks."

He also announced the targeting of an American oil tanker in the Gulf of Aden with several missiles. Additionally, he confirmed that the group had targeted several US warships in the Red Sea with drones.
