U.S. B-2 stealth bombers launched airstrikes against Houthi weapons storage facilities in Yemen, targeting maritime security threats.
The U.S. military launched airstrikes using B-2 stealth bombers against five underground weapons storage facilities of Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels. This marked the first deployment of B-2s in this conflict, aiming to disrupt the Houthis' capability to target vessels in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden. The strikes serve as an indirect warning to Iran, which supports the Houthis, amid ongoing tensions in the region related to maritime security.
