The US Navy blasted several guided missiles at Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen from a warship in the Red Sea on New Year’s Eve, impressive video shared by US Central Command shows.

Yemen’s Houthi rebels are stepping up their missile attacks, keeping up what could be the last major front in the Middle East wars.

Ali Dhafar argues that Yemen’s recent strategic military operations against US and Israeli assets signal its growing capabilities.

The U.S. has been targeting Houthi facilities in Yemen and has long carried out military activities in the country.

The Houthis, who are backed by Iran, have targeted commercial ships in the Red Sea in solidarity with Hamas in Gaza. They launched a missile at Israel overnight.

The targets struck by U.S. forces had been used to attack American warships and commercial vessels, officials said.

The latest round of strikes occurred as the United States and its ally Israel struggle to halt a campaign of regional assaults by Yemen’s Houthi militants.

"On Dec. 30 and 31, U.S. Navy ships and aircraft targeted a Houthi command and control facility and advanced conventional weapon (ACW) production and storage facilities that included missiles and uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAV)," the U.S. military's Central Command said in a post on X.

Yemen's Houthi spokesperson Mohammed Abdulsalam said that the country would continue to defend itself after several U.S. strikes targeted facilities in the capital Sanaa on Tuesday.

The US Navy released impressive video showing troops blasting several guided missiles at Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen from a warship in the Red Sea on New Year’s Eve.
