The U.S. military conducted wide-ranging air strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen on Saturday, President Trump said.
Why it matters: It was the biggest wave of U.S. strikes in Yemen since Trump assumed office.
A U.S. official said Saturday's strikes were not a one-off but the start of a series of "relentless" U.S. strikes against the Houthis that are expected to last for days or maybe even weeks. Driving the news: According to local reports in Yemen, numerous explosions took place in Sana'a around 1:30pm ET.
Trump said the strikes were aimed at "terrorists' bases, leaders, and missile defenses." Behind the scenes: Trump had ordered the Pentagon to start preparing military plans against the Houthis after his decision to re-designate them as a terrorist organization several weeks after he assumed office, the U.S. official said.

Happy Ramadan!
It would seem like that certainly
Includes a message to Iran
Despite the doubters
Ezekiel 38 is coming
Probably not. But Iran is quickly losing all of their proxies. They may be forced to do their own fighting. Which they probably won’t, as cowards prefer to have others do their fighting.

who caress i’ll just enjoy today!!
It is a long long time coming!!
How embarassing letting them lob missiles at our ships and we did nothing back!!
Great day!!
Persians will fight Jews to the last arab.
Day 55. 1 month, 24 days.
Long overdue.
Let’s see some Arc Light raids.
I wonder how close Iran is to having a working nuke?
Ann Coulter wrote that our culture's holidays like Christmas, Easter and Thanksgiving feature festival meals, giving presents and cards and welcoming loved ones and friends for celebrations.
Muslim holy days are causes for high alerts for non-Muslims. Muslim style may mean knife attacks in a crowd on the sidewalk, driving a vehicle into a group of people, suicide bombs in a restaurant or market or blowing up a plane or parked vehicle. Not the same feeling.
Three days ago:
Headlines such as:
Yemen’s Iran-backed rebel Houthis said on Wednesday that they would target “any Israeli vessel” traveling through nearby Mideast waters.
Their threats and attacks on international ships carrying cargo meant long and expensive detours to avoid the area, not just Israeli and US ships. Costs to consumers went up due to that detour necessity.
When you think about it, this might mean that Israel intends on finishing Hamas shortly. It has always been a concern that after the Cease Fire ends, then the Houthis will launch another barrage against Israel to prevent a large scale attack against Hamas. Now Hamas has no one to protect them. Or it might mean that they are ready to end the Iranian Regime. Next few days will be interesting for sure.
Let’s call the secret bomb researchers on their cell phones.
💥💥💥💥💨💨💨💨
Hey, just got a steady tone and some static.
Oh, well, try later.
Insightful. These things work together.
We'll know when we see the B-1 bombers start rolling in with IAF cover.
Judges should halt this murder of premigrants!!
Let's do the following with any and all islamofascistnazis. Build larger, fake pagers, and drop them via parachutes on the terrorists (Hamas, Hezbollah, ET AL) First of all, it will royally tweak their mental health. Secondly, we can watch where they run and hide, and send real bombs.
Supposedly this is going to last a week or more..The Houthis had threatened to attack Israel for cutting off aid to Gaza, so this is Trumps response..the Houthis found out Trump aint Biden
Good! Wipe them out!
