Yemen's Houthi rebels claim to have attacked an American aircraft carrier group in retaliation for US strikes, while the US has targeted a seized Israel-linked ship. The Houthis fired drones and missiles in their first attack, with the US intercepting most of them. The second attack targeted the Galaxy Leader, a ship captured by the Houthis in 2023. The United Nations has called for a cessation of military activity, and the US has warned the Houthis that 'hell will rain down upon you.' The conflict in Yemen has caused a severe humanitarian crisis.
