"Houthis Threaten U.S. and British Warships in Red Sea Amid Rising Middle East Tensions"

Houthi rebels, backed by Iran, have vowed to continue targeting U.S. and British warships in the Red Sea, citing support for Palestine amid heightened tensions in the Middle East. The U.S. and Britain have retaliated against the rebels, with the U.S. recently intercepting a missile fired by the Houthis. Meanwhile, the U.S. is expected to respond to a drone attack in Jordan that killed three U.S. troops, with 40 service members reporting injuries. The Biden administration has emphasized the need to protect its interests in the region while avoiding escalation.
