U.S. forces on Thursday conducted a fifth strike against Iranian-backed Houthi rebel military sites in Yemen as President Joe Biden acknowledged that the American and British bombardment had yet to stop the militants\u2019 attacks on vessels in the Red Sea that have disrupted global shipping.<\/p>\n

The latest strikes destroyed two Houthi anti-ship missiles that \u201cwere aimed into the southern Red Sea and prepared to launch,\u201d U.S. Central Command said in a statement posted to X, formerly known as Twitter. They were conducted by Navy F\/A-18 fighter aircraft, the Pentagon said.<\/p>\n

Biden said the U.S. would continue the strikes, even though so far they have not stopped the Houthis from continuing to harass commercial and military vessels.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you say working, are they stopping the Houthis, no. Are they going to continue, yes,\u201d Biden said in an exchange with reporters before departing the White House for a domestic policy speech in North Carolina.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This isn’t working so let’s continue risking lives and wasting treasure instead of actually stopping the threat. So glad our DEI-SECDEF has decided to return to work to advise the President in navigating these dangerous waters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
