AFCENT Commander Statement on Strikes against Houthi positions in Yemen
Jan. 11, 2024SHAW AIR FORCE BASE, S.C. --
“At the direction of U.S. Central Command, U.S. Air Forces Central, CENTCOM’s Joint & Combined Air Component Command, executed deliberate strikes on over 60 targets at 16 Iranian-backed Houthi militant locations, including command and control nodes, munitions depots, launching systems, production facilities, and air defense radar systems.
Over 100 precision-guided munitions of various types were used in the strikes. These strikes were comprised of coalition air and maritime strike and support assets from across the region, including U.S. Naval Forces Central Command aircraft and Tomahawk Land Attack Missiles launched from surface and sub-surface platforms.
This multi-national strike reinforces the international community’s commitment to freedom of navigation and against repeated Houthi anti-ship ballistic missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles, and cruise missiles attacks on commercial and U.S. and coalition military vessels in the Red Sea.
We remain committed to our critical partners throughout the Middle East to defend against Iranian-backed Militia Groups, including Houthi militants, and the threat they pose to regional security and stability.”
While Israel is being brought up on war crimes and genocide, the US is bombing Yemen. WTF
Look at this questions, I’d like one of those American is always right fucks, to answer this….
But don’t think folks sleeping
“JUST IN: Diplomatic source tells Al Jazeera that a Russian message to UN Security Council members deems the use of force in Yemen a violation of the United Nations Charter.
Russia requested an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council following the attacks by Washington and its allies on Yemen.
”
Trumpf saying everyone who wants World War 3 to kick off just got their wishes granted..
This is all very ironic in that the US and UN were putting pressure on Russia for invading Ukraine but then support Israel for doing worse. Israel is killing more civilians than Hamas soldiers.

Iran is helping the Houthi rebels in Yemen target and down U.S. Reaper drones, U.S. officials say
In recent years, enemies of the U.S. have found ways to jam the communications of the massive, armed MQ-9 Reaper drones and send them off course.

Iran is helping the Houthi rebels in Yemen target U.S. Reaper drones, which has enabled the Houthis to shoot down or damage several of the massive, unmanned aircraft, say two U.S. officials.
Tehran was already supporting the Houthiswith money, training and equipment, but in recent months the Iranians have also helped the rebels stop the MQ-9 Reapers, which are used for both intelligence collection and airstrikes. Reapers can carry Hellfire missiles and laser-guided bombs.
The Houthis targeted and hit an MQ-9 last week, but the drone was able to land and the U.S. military recovered it, according to U.S. officials. The Houthis have shot down or hit about a half-dozen others since the start of the Israel-Hamas war in October 2023 and claim to have downed another over the weekend.
The Pentagon did not respond directly to questions about Iran aiding the Houthis in shooting down drones, instead referring NBC News to a Defense Intelligence Agency report from February highlighting Iran’s support for the Houthis.
In a statement, a spokesperson for the White House National Security Council said, "We’ve repeatedly called out Iran publicly and privately for their support to the Houthis, and will continue to work with our allies and partners to ensure the safety of our personnel and capabilities in the region. We also continue to engage partners, including at the United Nations, to condemn these actions and hold the Houthis accountable."
In recent years, U.S. adversaries have been able to jam the communication link between the MQ-9 drone and its operators back on land. The U.S. communicates with the drones via satellite, so when that communication link between the aircraft and the satellite is jammed, operators can no longer control the drone. It can go off course and even crash, and can also become an easier target for hostile fire.
The Russians have been using this tactic against U.S. drones over Eastern Europe and Syria for some time. The interference severely inhibits the U.S. ability to gather intelligence and increases the chance that the drones could drift into unfriendly airspace. In many cases the drones have drifted off course for a bit but then returned safely to base.
Michael Knights of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy says the Houthis have improved their air defense systems with better weapons in recent months, many coming from Iran, upping their ability to hit U.S. targets with accurate fire.
“We know the Houthis have been developing stronger air defenses,” he told NBC News. He said the new and upgraded missiles and systems that the Houthis have obtained from Iran include the 358 and SA-2 surface-to-air missiles, both of which can take down a Reaper or other drone.
The U.S. military has struggled to stop some Houthi air defense systems because rather than radars, the Houthis often use electro-optical systems to find targets. They have no radar signature and are harder to detect.
“The Houthis and the Iranians went electro-optical, because it is a completely passive system. It’s hard to hunt those things down because they don’t really have any signature before launch,” Knights said.
The 358 missiles are “the weapon of choice to be handed out” to Iranian proxy groups like the Houthis, he said.
Knights also said the Houthis have effectively denied the U.S. Navy and many commercial ships the ability to operate in the Red Sea, given the high risk from Houthi anti-ship ballistic missiles and surface-to-air missiles.
“They denied us the Red Sea as a place to do carrier ops,” Knights said.
Iran sent a spy ship to the waters near Yemen to help the Houthis target ships in the Red Sea. NBC News was first to report that the U.S. conducted a cyberattack against the ship to inhibit its ability to share intelligence with the rebel group.
It appears the U.S. plan to interdict shipments of Iranian weapons and destroy stockpiles of weapons and drones has failed to roll back Houthi attacks on cargo ships, Knights said.
“They’re resupplying faster than we can destroy them,” he said.
Bro, I linked your post in here…
Just a small sample of what been happening with them dudes from Yemen.
Yemeni Armed Forces have announced that their domestically-made Quds-5 Missile has entered service and will be used to strike "deep into Israel."
• Range: Estimated to exceed 600 kilometers.
• Guidance: Likely GPS-based for improved accuracy.
• Warhead: Conventional, capable of carrying a payload of around 150-450 kg.
• Propulsion: Powered by a small turbojet engine

Thank you Biden and Pentagon.
Dont underestimate Houthi weaponry.
I'm concerned about our warships/crew over there.
Don't be caught slipping, keep on the attack...
Let this sink in, the had to send these bombers to Yemen… a. couple weeks ago and look what happened yesterday(the post about this one)
Folks said Yemen demands (about leaving Gaza alone) didn’t care any weight.
They were just blowing hot air… the only thing hot is the smoke them Missiles produce
