TL;DR Summary

The senior US Navy commander in the Middle East, Vice Adm. George Wikoff, revealed in an exclusive interview that the US-led campaign of strikes against Yemen's Houthi rebels has not deterred them from attacking international commercial shipping. Despite four waves of allied-backed airstrikes targeting Houthi military assets, the rebels continue their terrorist activities, including firing a ballistic missile at a US-owned chemical tanker in the Gulf of Aden. Wikoff emphasized the potential for diplomatic pressure to compel the Iran-backed rebels to cease their brazen attacks.
