Yemeni rebels claim attacks on US and Israeli targets, prompting a US-led coalition formation.

Yemeni forces, likely the Houthi rebels, have launched coordinated missile and drone strikes on US military vessels and claimed attacks on Israeli targets. The strikes are in retaliation against US-British actions in Yemen. The US is forming an international coalition to protect navigation and has asked more countries to join in fighting the Iran-backed Houthi rebels, who have attacked over 130 ships since October, increasing insurance and freight costs.
