Yemen uses something like 75% of it's (sparse) arable land to grow Khat and is heavily dependent of food aid from the WFP. The rational course would be to starve the country into submission.

It's strange how this is somehow less politically acceptable than bombing the shit out of them.
 

Israel’s Arrow air defenses, US THAAD system both failed to intercept Houthi missile, sources say​

Both the Israeli Air Force’s long-range Arrow air defense system and the American THAAD system failed to intercept the Houthi missile this morning, defense sources say.

The IDF says it made several attempts to down the missile, which ultimately landed within the perimeter of Ben Gurion Airport.

The US deployed the THAAD to Israel last year amid tensions with Iran. ...(Source)

Okay? Still not answered the question though. When I was in the Army we lost an APC and a Humvee on a field exercise. The troops were retrained, and the equipment was replaced. These things happen even outside a shooting conflict. The US Military treats equipment like ammunition. It gets expended in war and training. To be sure, the troops getting "retrained" would rather wish they had not, and their commanding officer got a black mark on his record. But it wasn't the end of the universe for anyone and was treated ultimately as the entire point of training the unit in the first place.

Is there currently largely a stop on attacks towards cargo ships?

Wiki seems to not update the ships lists for months now and most of the text references do not have ships as focus. Is the intervention working?

Houthis haven't attacked a commercial vessel since early November last year

Congrats on confusing range with combat radius.

Wrong, confused stalker child. Combat radius (max distance a fully loaded military aircraft can go in a straight line and return without refueling) is about 700 miles for the Super Hornet and F-35. Combat range (max one-way distance a fully loaded military aircraft can go) for them is about 1400 miles. Enjoy milsperg prison

Why should the US and Western allies feed a region that continually lobs missiles at them?

Retard kike, all human beings support what the Yemenis are doing to you filthy beasts, and want to send them more food and weapons.
 
There actually is a military solution to this conflict, it's called collective punishment of the Houthis as a group, which among other things involves mass killing of civilians that are known or suspected to be aiding the efforts against US and other international shipping.

The problem is that nobody in the US or the rest of the developed world has the stomach for this kind of thing anymore, which is why this farce of a campaign will continue.

You do realize losing only two jets with no fatalities after a years long campaign is unbelievably acceptable mission to loss ratio? You are acting like this in any way changed anything and the jets were not replaced within a week.

This. The Houthis have been acting retarded for over 18 months now and have had zero military victories over the Western Naval coalition or the Israelis

In this time they've killed.... An Israeli civilian and I think that's about it.

LMAO Houthis sure do like having their ports charred to cinders.

Oh well better shoot more ineffectual ballistic missiles at Israel and get more retards vaporized by US smart bombs.

They next time they have a big retarded outdoor rally there needs to be a few thousand pounds of TNT dropped on it.
 
Looks like Israel is going to hit the San'a airport soon, as it has given the warning to evacuate the premises.

Israel has destroyed the sanaa airport

**IDF Spokesperson:**

*For the second time in less than 24 hours, the Israeli Air Force struck terror targets of the Houthi terrorist regime in Yemen.*

The Air Force recently attacked and destroyed infrastructure of the Houthi terror organization at the main airport in the Sanaa area, rendering it completely inoperative. This comes in response to the Houthi terror organization's rocket fire at Ben Gurion Airport.

The airport, like the Hodeidah port targeted last night, is used by the Houthi terror organization for transferring weapons and operatives, and is regularly operated by the Houthi regime for terrorist purposes. This is yet another example of the Houthi terror group using civilian infrastructure for acts of terror.

In addition, several central power stations in the Sanaa area were also targeted. The Houthi terror regime exploits these as major power supply infrastructures for their operations—another instance of the regime exploiting the Yemeni people and their civilian infrastructure for terrorism.

Furthermore, the “Al-Amran” cement factory, located north of Sanaa, was targeted. This is a significant resource for the Houthi terror regime and is used in the construction of tunnels and military infrastructure. Striking the plant deals a blow to the regime’s economy and military buildup.

The strikes were carried out in a targeted manner, with precautions taken to minimize harm to civilians and civilian property as much as possible.

The operation was approved by the Commander of the Air Force and the Chief of the General Staff.

Over the past year and a half, the Houthi terror regime has operated under Iranian direction and funding in order to attack Israel and its allies, destabilize regional order, and disrupt global maritime freedom.

The IDF is determined to continue acting forcefully against anyone who poses a threat to Israeli citizens—at any distance necessary.

Trump announces US will stop bombing Houthis​


The United States will stop strikes against Yemen’s Houthi group, President Donald Trump announced Tuesday, after a nearly-two-month bombing campaign.

Trump, ahead of a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, said the halt would start immediately. The Houthis approached the administration on Monday night indicating “they want to stop the fighting,” he said.

The military has struck at least 800 targets in Yemen and killed hundreds of Houthis since March, according to U.S. Central Command.


Trump framed the move as a handshake agreement to end the Pentagon’s bombing campaign in exchange for the Houthis no longer attacking American ships. It’s not a deal,” he said. “They said, ‘Please don’t bomb us anymore and we’re not going to attack your ships.’”

The threat of Houthi attacks on the Red Sea waterway has forced commercial ships to divert course, causing lengthy delays and extending maritime trading routes thousands of miles around the tip of Africa. A senior Houthi leader told DropSiteNews in April that the group would cease attacks if the Trump administration halted bombings.

But the arrangement is unlikely to calm tensions in the region if it’s limited to protecting American ships. Israel escalated strikes against the Houthis on Monday night with 20 fighter jets bombing the rebel-held port city of Hodeidah. Israeli forces were responding to a ballistic missile strike against the Jerusalem airport by the group. The Trump administration also labeled the Houthis a terror group in March, changing a Biden-era policy.

The Defense Department and U.S. Central Command did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Trump special envoy Steve Witkoff worked to reach a ceasefire over the weekend with Oman serving as a mediator, said a person familiar with the matter, who was granted anonymity to discuss sensitive diplomatic issues. Witkoff has also been leading talks with Iran, which is backed by the Houthis, over its nuclear program. The Houthi ceasefire could help improve the environment for those discussions, which are meant to reconvene soon.


Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi confirmed on the social media platform X that his country mediated talks between the Houthis and the U.S. “In the future, neither side will target the other, including American vessels, in the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab Strait, ensuring freedom of navigation and the smooth flow of international commercial shipping,” he wrote.

Mohammed al-Bukhaiti, a senior Houthi official, told Bloomberg News that the group would stop attacking U.S. military ships if Washington halts its strikes, “but we will definitely continue our operations in support to Gaza.”

He said Houthi operations would continue “until the end of the aggression on Gaza and blockade on its people.”

The Houthis have launched more than 500 strikes on commercial ships in the Red Sea and against Israel since Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, attacks, according to the International Crisis Group, an independent conflict monitor. But Houthi strikes against the waterway have declined significantly in recent months, and the group hasn’t targeted a commercial vessel since late December.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio, following Trump’s announcement, said the Houthi strikes were a freedom of navigation issue.

“These are a band of individuals with advanced weaponry that were threatening global shipping,” he said. And the job was to get that to stop.”

The Trump administration’s military effort, dubbed “Operation Rough Rider” by the Pentagon, has helped reduce ballistic missile launches by 69 percent this year and cut launches of one-way attack drones by 55 percent.

But the costs have continued to pile up with an extraordinary display of U.S. military force. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth extended the deployment of the USS Harry S. Truman carrier strike group in the region and sent a second carrier, the USS Carl Vinson, in a major allocation of resources. The Pentagon also sent six B-2 bombers to the U.S. airbase at Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean — a third of the entire U.S. fleet.

The strike halt comes before Trump heads to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates next week. Trump said he will make a “very, very big” and “positive” announcement before the trip, but did not specify what that would mean. (Source)

The USA loses yet another F18. :story:

1746604073538.webp

Another F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter jet fell off the aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman and into the Red Sea on Tuesday/ Article/Archive

The US military keeps getting BTFO by sandniggers in mandresses and sandals. Last time we even let them keep vehicles, armaments and uniforms. This time the U.S. has now lost more aircraft during Operation Prosperity Guardian than in the past 20 years in all conflicts combined.

Yemen does not have an air force, and apparently doesn't need one, it just has to sit back and let the US Navy do the work for them.
