The US and its allies are considering possible military strikes against Houthi rebels in #Yemen, in a recognition that a newly announced maritime task force meant to protect commercial ships in the Red Sea may not be enough to eliminate the threat to the vital waterway.
Planning is underway for actions intended to cripple the #Houthis’ ability to target commercial ships by hitting the militant group at the source, according to four people familiar with the matter who asked not to be identified discussing internal deliberations. They underscored that the US still wants diplomacy to work and hasn’t decided to go ahead.
