In a dramatic turn of events, the US and UK have initiated military strikes targeting Houthi rebels in Yemen in response to recent attacks on ships in the Red Sea. The strikes have sparked international debate over the legitimacy and consequences of such actions, with concerns raised about the humanitarian crisis in Yemen. Amid escalating tensions, leaders defend the strikes as necessary for self-defence and protecting global trade interests.
As the conflict unfolds, the Houthi rebels vow retaliation against the US and UK, raising fears of further escalation.
