'Pathetic European free-loading': What was said in leaked group chat
Tuesday, 25 March 2025 A group chat of top US officials included plans to conduct airstrikes on Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis and fiery critique of "pathetic" Europe.
The U.S. military campaign against the Houthis in Yemen is proving costly and largely ineffective. With over $1.5 billion spent on munitions, 30 warships deployed—including the USS Eisenhower—and advanced assets like F-35C jets, Washington faces limited success. Houthi forces, backed by Iran, have launched over 325 attacks and disrupted $1 trillion in trade via asymmetric warfare. As the Red Sea crisis deepens, analysts warn this prolonged conflict may become America’s next Vietnam. News that speaks your language – Oneindia App is now live | Click on the below link to download

Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels launched a coordinated ballistic missile strike on Israel’s Ben Gurion International Airport — the country’s busiest aviation hub. Two powerful missiles slammed into key areas of the airport, causing widespread panic, flight cancellations, and severe infrastructural damage. The unprecedented twin attack marks the most direct assault yet by the Houthis on Israeli soil, raising fears of further long-range strikes

Yemen’s armed forces launched a hypersonic ballistic missile at Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport, halting operations and sending civilians into shelters. This marks the latest in a series of precise retaliatory strikes by the Houthis, who have previously targeted Israeli infrastructure. Three additional drone attacks hit Yaffa, Ashdod, and Umm al-Rashrash. Yemen’s President Mahdi Al-Mashat warned foreign companies to exit Israel or face "real and significant risks." The Yemen military stated operations will continue until Gaza’s blockade ends and aggression ceases, signaling potential escalation.

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has described America’s widely perceived failure against Yemen’s Houthis as a “tailored operation,” claiming the goal was freedom of navigation and not the protection of Israeli-linked vessels. Notably, Hegseth made no mention of Israel during his statement. Critics argue the Pentagon has rebranded a humiliating military result, after months of failed deterrence against Houthi strikes in the Red Sea. The Pentagon's shifting rhetoric has sparked fresh debate over U.S. credibility, especially in light of its deep alliance with Israel.

Tensions in the Middle East reach new heights as Iran-backed Houthis threaten to shoot down Israeli civilian aircraft following a direct missile strike on Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion Airport. In a powerful response, Israeli fighter jets bombed the last known Houthi-operated plane in Sanaa, Yemen — intensifying fears of a regional air war.

In a chilling new video, the leader of al-Qaida's Yemen branch, Saad bin Atef al-Awlaki, has issued direct threats against U.S. President Donald Trump, billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk, Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The threats come in response to the ongoing Israel-Hamas war in Gaza. The half-hour video, which circulated via AQAP-linked channels, marks al-Awlaki’s first major appearance since taking over the terror group in 2024.

Houthi REVENGE Begins: Yemen has launched a “Palestine 2” hypersonic ballistic missile targeting Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, marking a major escalation in regional tensions. The strike, in response to Israeli airstrikes on Beirut, disrupted air traffic and sent thousands into shelters. Yemeni Armed Forces vowed continued support for Gaza and Lebanon, stating attacks will persist until Israel ends its war on Gaza. While Israel claims the missile was intercepted, sirens rang across central Israel and occupied territories. This marks Yemen’s first official missile strike on Israeli infrastructure from afar.

President Trump has signed a sweeping travel ban blocking entry from 12 countries, mostly in Africa and the Middle East, including Iran, Sudan, and Yemen. However, exceptions apply for green card holders, American citizens with dual nationality, and those with close family ties in the U.S. Athletes, refugees with approved asylum, and Afghan allies are also exempt. Some countries face partial bans to allow time for improved visa screening, reflecting a mix of security concerns and humanitarian considerations.
