Trump Threatens Direct US Strikes on Houthis Over Red Sea Tanker Attacks

⚠️ RED SEA — Trump named the Houthis directly. That's a different war authorization. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Previous US posture treated Houthi strikes as an Iran proxy problem. A direct threat against Yemen is a separate military commitment — new target set, new legal exposure, new escalation ladder. With two Saudi tankers already hit and Chinese supertankers probing Bab el-Mandeb, Trump's warning arrives as the chokepoint is actively failing.
