US Defense Minister Pete Hegseth said that Iran knows very well what the US Army can do.
US Defense Minister Pete Hegseth on Wednesday gave a stern warning to Iran, saying that he would have to face serious consequences to support Houthi rebels in Yemen.
Hegseth also retweeted an old statement by Donald Trump, in which Trump said that Iran would be held accountable for any attack on behalf of the Huthis.
Hegseth said in X post-
We are looking at the support being given to Houthi rebels from your (Iran) side. We know well what you are doing. You also know very well what the US Army can do, you were warned. Now you will have to suffer its consequences at the time and place you choose from our side.
The US warning has come at a time when it has recently intensified military attacks against the Huthi rebels who have controlled the northern Yemen.
Since March, the US Army has targeted more than 1000 places controlled by Houthi fighters. On the other hand, Houthi rebels have targeted several shipping ships in Red citing solidarity with Palestinians.
68 people were killed in a US attack on Monday in the northern province of Samen in Yemen. The attack was carried out at a detention center keeping African migrants.
2 months ago, a picture of the American AISRIRRAR in Yemen’s capital Huti was released by the US Army.
Iran refuses to support the husbands Iran has been continuously denying that he supports Houthi rebels. Iran says that Houthi fighters work independently. However, American officials have been constantly reiterating that the Iranian army gives necessary military assistance and strategic support to Houthi fighters.
America is running an operation against Huti rebels
For the first time after Donald Trump became President, on March 15, the US Army launched an airplane on Huti rebels in Yemen. 31 people died in the attack. These included women and children along with Huti rebels. Whereas, 101 people were injured.
Regarding this strike, Trump wrote on social media- Huti terrorists, your time is over. America will raise such havoc on you from the sky, which would never have seen before.
Since then, America has been continuously attacking Huki rebels in Yemen. 74 people died in an air strike carried out 10 days ago, while more than 100 people were injured.
The air strike took place on the Port Ras Isa of an oil. The strike was confirmed by the US Central Command, although it did not reveal the correct figure of those who died.
The Huthi rebels have attacked the US warship 174 times since 2023 and a commercial ship 145 times.
Who is Huki Rebel
- The civil war began in Yemen in 2014. Its root is Shia-Sunni controversy. According to a report by Carnezie Middle East Center, there was always a dispute between the two communities which turned into a civil war from the beginning of the Arabian revolution in 2011. In 2014, the Shia rebels opened a front against the Sunni government.
- The government was headed by President Abdarbu Mansoor Hadi. Hadi took power in February 2012 from former President Ali Abdullah Saleh, who has been in power for a long time after the Arab revolution. Hadi was struggling to bring stability amidst changes in the country. At the same time, the army was torn down and the separatist Huti mobilized to the south.
- Iran and Saudi Arabia also jumped into this civil war in the race to dominate Arab countries. On one hand, the Huti rebels got the support of the Shia -dominated country Iran. So the government to the Sunni -dominated country of Saudi Arabia.
- On seeing this, rebels, known as Huti, captured a large part of the country. In 2015, the situation became such that the rebels forced the entire government to go into exile.
- Huti rebels have turned into a trend fighter party thanks to the support from Iran. Huti rebels have modern weapons and even their helicopters.
