Red Sea Threat: US and UK airstrikes on Yemen can embolden Houthis, says senior analyst | Oneindia
The United States and the United Kingdom launched airstrikes on Thursday night targeting Houthi facilities in Yemen.
This marks the first time during the war that the US and its allies have directly attacked Yemeni territory in retaliation for the Houthi group's actions in the Red Sea.
However, analysts are suggesting that rather than being deterred, the Houthis might be further emboldened by these attacks.
Despite not being internationally recognised as the government of Yemen, the group controls significant portions of the country, and experts believe that the increased attention from the world's sole superpower could elevate their regional and domestic profile.
Israeli media report plans to call up 80,000â100,000 IDF reserve troops for a potential occupation of Gaza City under PM Netanyahuâs strategy to dismantle Hamas. The operation, approved in principle by IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi, could last until late 2026. Hamas vows fierce resistance, condemning Netanyahuâs âGreater Israelâ remarks as dangerous delusion. With Israel already engaged on multiple fronts, including Lebanon and Yemen, tensions are soaring. Hamas claims recent strikes on an Israeli Merkava 4 tank and D9 bulldozer.

Yemenâs Houthi rebels claim they have launched hypersonic Palestine-2 missiles at Israelâs Ben Gurion Airport, boasting of a direct and significant strike. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF), however, deny the attack caused any damage, stating the incoming missile was intercepted before impact. The bold claim marks a dramatic escalation in the Houthisâ involvement in the ongoing regional conflict, intensifying tensions between Israel and its adversaries.

Yemenâs Houthi Armed Forces claim responsibility for four major drone strikes targeting Israeli sites in Haifa, the Negev, Eilat, and Beersheba. Spokesman Yahya Saree says the attacks were carried out in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza and warns that more operations will follow until the siege is lifted and Israeli aggression ends. Israeli military reports shooting down one drone near Eilat, but the fate of the other five remains unclear.

A major escalation was narrowly avoided as the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) intercepted a ballistic missile launched from Yemen by the Iran-backed Houthi rebels. Sirens rang out across Jerusalem and central Israel as the incoming threat was neutralized in mid-air by Israeli air defense systems. Magen David Adom confirmed there were no injuries or damage reported. Israeli authorities have since declared the situation under control, but tensions remain high as the region braces for potential retaliation. Watch dramatic visuals and real-time updates as Israel faces another direct missile threat.

The conflict escalates. In a bold and coordinated strike, the Yemeni armed forces launched three drones targeting Israeli military positions deep inside the occupied territories. The explosive visuals show fiery impacts across Yaffa, Ashkelon, and the port of Haifa, in what the Houthis call a retaliatory operation for Gaza.
The Yemenis say they will continue their drone and missile campaigns until Israel ends its siege and offensive in Gaza.
This marks one of the most significant escalations from Yemen in recent weeks, signaling a regional expansion of the war that now stretches far beyond Gazaâs borders.
Israel has not officially responded, but analysts warn that more such strikes could provoke a wider Middle East confrontation.
Watch the footage, military impact analysis, and the warning signs the world is ignoring.

Yemenâs Armed Forces have delivered a bold message to Israel and the world by penetrating Tel Avivâs missile shield with explosive-laden drones that struck three high-value targets â including a sensitive Israeli site in Jaffa, military infrastructure in Ashkelon, and a strategic zone in the Negev Desert.
Brigadier General Yahya Saree confirmed the success of the operations and warned of continued strikes until the siege and genocide in Gaza end. The strikes form part of Yemenâs relentless campaign of solidarity with Palestine, which has also involved firing advanced ballistic and hypersonic missiles. Meanwhile, Yemen has issued a clarion call to Muslims and Arabs worldwide to rise, protest, and break the Gaza blockade. The message is clear â Gazaâs resistance is not alone, and regional escalation is mounting fast. Is a broader conflict in the Middle East now inevitable?

A Comoros-flagged livestock ship was attacked off Yemenâs Red Sea coast near Mocha by unidentified gunmen in a small boat. The vessel was en route from Somalia to Saudi Arabia when it came under fire. Though no group has claimed responsibility, the incident adds to growing fears over shipping safety amid ongoing Houthi threats. Security firm Ambrey warns vessels to avoid eastern waters near the Hanish Islands. With the U.S. drawing back and Israel escalating strikes, tensions in the Red Sea continue to rise.

Israel has launched fresh airstrikes on Houthi targets in Yemen's Hodeida port, claiming the site was being used to funnel Iranian weapons for attacks on Israeli and allied interests. The IDF has intensified operations in the Red Sea region, warning Tehran directly with the message: âYemen = Tehran.â This comes amid escalating tensions tied to the Gaza conflict and increasing Houthi drone and missile attacks. The international community watches closely as the Israel-Houthi conflict threatens broader regional stability.

The Israeli Air Force, backed by Defense Minister Israel Katzâs stern warningââYemenâs fate is the same as Tehranââhas launched its latest airstrikes on Houthi-controlled facilities at Yemenâs strategic Hodeidah port.

In a chilling accusation, the Director of Al-Shifa Hospital claims that Israel is preparing a major massacre in Gaza and has begun by targeting journalists to silence the truth. Al Jazeera reporters Anas al-Sharif and Mohammed Qraiqea, along with three cameramen, were killed in a strike near the hospital. Al Jazeera has called it a "targeted assassination" and a direct attack on press freedom. The IDF claims the journalists were affiliated with Hamas but has provided no credible evidence. With international outrage growing and journalists under fire, is this the beginning of a blackout before a bloodbath?
