Houthi rebels in Yemen have vowed to escalate their actions in response to recent strikes by the US and UK. The Iran-backed group has declared that they will continue to disrupt regional trade regardless of any sacrifices they may face. The US and UK launched a series of attacks on Houthi targets in Yemen after a drone attack on a US base in Jordan. In a statement, Houthi spokesperson Mohammed al-Bukhaiti emphasized that their military operations against Israel would continue until the crimes in Gaza cease and the siege on its residents is lifted. He also warned that the American-British aggression against Yemen would not go unanswered and that they would respond with escalation. Tensions in the region have risen following the death of three US soldiers in the Jordan attack. President Biden has promised an ongoing response, targeting Iran-backed groups in Iraq, Syria, Yemen, and Lebanon. White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan refused to rule out the possibility of strikes within Iran as well. Meanwhile, tensions between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon threaten to further complicate the situation. Hezbollah has launched numerous missiles across Israel's northern border, and Israeli military officials have warned of a potential invasion. The IDF spokesman stated that while war is not their first choice, they are prepared to act wherever Hezbollah is present.
