Donald Trump has launched a series of air strikes on Yemen's Houthis, a group that has been targeting shipping in response to Israel's invasion of Gaza. Trump stated that the attacks will not be tolerated and that the US will use overwhelming force until their objective is achieved. He also warned Iran, the Houthi's benefactor, that they are on notice. The Houthis, an Iranian-backed rebel group, have been attacking commercial vessels in the Red Sea, causing major shipping companies to reroute their ships. Trump called on Iran to stop supporting the Houthis and criticized the previous White House administration for being weak in dealing with the situation.
