U.S. bombs Yemen

"Dozens of people were killed or injured after the U.S. launched a major airstrike campaign
against Y
emeni-based Houthi militants, with President Donald Trump personally observing the operation as it unfolded.
The strikes hit Yemen shortly after Trump announced a “decisive and powerful military action” against the Houthis on Saturday, warning that “hell will rain down” on them unless they stop attacking U.S. interests and disrupting international commercial navigation in the region.
U.S. Central Command has announced that its forces launched a “large-scale operation against Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen,” releasing images of F/A-18 fighter jets taking off from the aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman to carry out strikes." RT
