US launches new round of strikes targeting Houthis in Yemen


American warplanes launched a new round of airstrikes against multiple targets in Yemen controlled by Houthi extremists, President Donald Trump announced Saturday.


The strikes are aimed at destroying “terrorists’ bases, leaders, and missile defenses,” he wrote on his social media site Truth Social, and are meant to “protect American shipping, air, and naval assets, and to restore Navigational Freedom.”


Here is the important part:


The strikes come after the White House has loosened Biden-era restrictions on military commanders in conducting airstrikes on militant targets. Commanders in the Middle East and Africa now can take strikes where they see fit, without asking the White House to approve them.


One official, granted anonymity to discuss internal discussions, said the uptick in strikes in Somalia in recent weeks targeting al-Shabab militants, and strikes in Syria against Islamic State leaders, are the result of the new policy, adding there will be more strikes in the region to come as the military sees new opportunities to hit militant leaders.


ROE'S will either cost or save lives.
