President Donald Trump announced that he’s “ordered the United States Military to launch decisive and powerful Military action against the Houthi terrorists in Yemen” in a post shared on his Truth Social account Saturday (March 15).
“Today, I have ordered the United States Military to launch decisive and powerful Military action against the Houthi terrorists in Yemen. They have waged an unrelenting campaign of piracy, violence, and terrorism against American, and other, ships, aircraft, and drones,” Trump wrote.
The president then directly threatened the Houthi rebels, writing, “YOUR ATTACKS MUST STOP, STARTING TODAY.”
“IF THEY DON’T, HELL WILL RAIN DOWN UPON YOU LIKE NOTHING YOU HAVE EVER SEEN BEFORE!” he added, while also warning Iran to cease its support of the group “immediately.”
Trump also took aim at former President Joe Biden‘s past handling of the Houthi rebels following their attack on American warships in the Red Sea.
“Joe Biden’s response was pathetically weak, so the unrestrained Houthis just kept going. It has been over a year since a U.S. flagged commercial ship safely sailed through the Suez Canal, the Red Sea, or the Gulf of Aden,” he wrote. “The last American Warship to go through the Red Sea, four months ago, was attacked by the Houthis over a dozen times. Funded by Iran, the Houthi thugs have fired missiles at U.S. aircraft, and targeted our Troops and Allies. These relentless assaults have cost the U.S. and World Economy many BILLIONS of Dollars while, at the same time, putting innocent lives at risk.”
