(Worthy News) – US Central Command confirmed ongoing operations against Iran-backed Houthi terrorists, targeting multiple Houthi strongholds locations in Yemen, as Trump warns that the terrorist organization will be “completely annihilated.”
Al Masirah TV, operated by the Houthis, reported the U.S. launched over 10 airstrikes on military strongholds, including the heavily fortified Al-Safra district in Saada, known for weapon storage and training. This escalation follows the Houthis’ recent threats to attack Red Sea shipping to support Palestinians in Gaza.
The Houthi’s military spokesperson announced that the USS Harry S. Truman carrier group was targeted with cruise missiles and drones, marking the fourth alleged attack by the terrorist organization on the U.S. Navy over the past 72 hours.
CENTCOM stated on X, “U.S. fighter aircraft used AGR-20 FALCO Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS) laser-guided 2.75″ rockets to shoot down Iran-backed Houthi one-way-attack drones.”

TRUMP ISSUES WARNING TO HOUTHIS
On Wednesday, President Donald Trump issued another warning to the Houthi terrorist rebels and urged Iran to cease its support.
“Reports are coming in that while Iran has lessened its intensity on military equipment and general support to the Houthis, they are still sending large levels of supplies. Iran must stop the sending of these supplies immediately,” the president stated in a Truth Social post.
“Let the Houthis fight it out themselves. Either way, they lose, but this way they lose quickly. Tremendous damage has been inflicted upon the Houthi barbarians, and watch how it will get progressively worse — It’s not even a fair fight and never will be. They will be completely annihilated!”
ISRAEL TARGETED BY HOUTHI BALLISTIC MISSLE
On Tuesday evening, air raid sirens sounded across southern Israel, including Beersheva and other Negev locations, due to a ballistic missile launched by the Houthi rebels from Yemen. The Israel Defense Forces intercepted the missile before it entered Israeli airspace.
