Yemen Houthi Leader Issues Warning as US Navy Confronts Red Sea Crisis

The leader of Yemen's Houthi rebels, Abdel-Malek al-Houthi, has warned that any American targeting of their country will be met with retaliation, as the U.S. leads a multinational effort to protect commercial ships from Houthi attacks in the Red Sea. Greece has announced it will send a naval frigate to participate in Operation Prosperity Guardian, while the UK and France have also deployed warships. However, France and Spain have indicated limitations on their involvement. The operation aims to ensure freedom of navigation and bolster regional security and prosperity.
