US President Donald Trump said military operations against Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels will continue until they stop threatening freedom of navigation, news agencies reported, BTA reports.
“The choice for the Houthis is clear - stop attacking American ships and we will stop attacking you. Otherwise, what has happened so far will be just the beginning, and the Houthis and their patron Iran will have to feel the real pain“, Trump wrote on the Truth Social social network.
In recent weeks, the US has launched a military campaign targeting Houthi positions. The rebel movement, also known as “Ansar Allah“, controls a significant part of the territory of Yemen.
