"US and Allies Threaten Action Against Houthis to Safeguard Red Sea Maritime Route"

The United States and a coalition of international allies have issued a warning to Houthi militants, threatening unspecified consequences if their disruptive actions in the Red Sea continue. The Houthis have been targeting shipping routes, particularly the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait, with drone strikes, missile attacks, and hijackings, claiming to target vessels linked to Israel. These actions have been condemned as illegal and destabilizing to global trade and maritime security. The U.S. Navy has already responded by destroying Houthi boats that attempted to board a commercial vessel. The allied nations demand an immediate cessation of attacks and the release of detained vessels and crews, holding the Houthis responsible for any further threats to lives and commerce.
