US lists Houthis as terrorists, rebels hit another America-operated ship

[Collection]The US has re-designated the Houthi rebels in Yemen as a terrorist group following their escalated attacks on US-operated vessels in the Red Sea. These actions, seen as an extension of the broader Israel-Hamas conflict, have disrupted major trade routes, prompting global economic concerns and strategic military responses. The US military has conducted targeted strikes against Houthi positions, despite the Houthis' continued threats and actions against commercial and military ships. The international community, recognizing the threat to global trade and regional stability, is responding with heightened security measures and diplomatic efforts to mitigate the crisis.
