Gaza War Expands as US, UK Warplanes Bomb Houthi Strongholds in Yemen
Reuters and VOA are reporting that US and UK warplanes have begin striking Houthi targets in Yemen, in what marks the first major regional expanse of the Gaza war.
The Telegraph has also reported British fighters and ships are participating in the military action against the Houthis.
There are incoming reports of large airstrikes in major Yemeni cities.
One Mideast correspondent remarks that “we have gone from US prioritizing an end to war in Yemen to US getting involved against rebels in control of Yemen. Regional ramifications of both Yemen and Gaza wars on full display, with heavy toll on trade, maritime navigation.”
Al Arabiya has reported that there are “Violent air strikes on the vicinity of Hodeidah city” and Sanaa has also been bombed.
Like pretty much all of America’s last twenty something years of the ‘war on terror,’ Congress has been sidelined once again…
