Welp.


Al Mayadeen English:



US Air Forces Central stated in a press release that airstrikes in Yemen targeted over 60 sites associated with the Ansar Allah movement across 16 locations.


“At the direction of US Central Command, US Air Forces Central, CENTCOM’s Joint and Combined Air Component Command, executed deliberate strikes on over 60 targets at 16 Iranian-backed Houthi militant locations, including command and control nodes, munitions depots, launching systems, production facilities, and air defense radar systems,” the release said late Thursday night.


The strikes involved the utilization of over 100 precision-guided munitions of diverse types, as mentioned in the release.


The US Central Command had released a statement after U.S. military forces — together with the United Kingdom and with support from Australia, Bahrain, Canada, and the Netherlands — conducted “multilateral coalition strikes” on Yemen’s Ansar Allah, Fox News reported.


“We hold the Houthi militants and their destabilizing Iranian sponsors responsible for the illegal, indiscriminate, and reckless attacks on international shipping that have impacted 55 nations so far, including endangering the lives of hundreds of mariners, including the United States,” said General Michael Erik Kurilla, USCENTCOM Commander.


“Their illegal and dangerous actions will not be tolerated, and they will be held accountable,” Kurilla added.


Overnight airstrikes were conducted by the US and the United Kingdom against Ansar Allah positions in four Yemeni governorates, encompassing the capital Sanaa, and the cities of Hodeidah, Saada, and Taiz, according to officials from provincial governments as reported by Sputnik.


I should keep a record of things I say are going to happen way in advance so I can link them to remind everyone how good I am at this.


Although, this wasn’t exactly a hard one to call.


It was very obvious from the outset of the Palestine conflict that this is the direction things would go in.


So, analysis…


What is the point of this bombing? Obviously, they know that the Houthis are not going to back down and say “oh, okay, okay, uncle – we give up!”


Quite the opposite…
