US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth pledged on Sunday that the United States would launch "relentless" strikes against the Houthi rebels in Yemen until the group halts its military operations targeting US assets and global shipping routes, while the US National Security Advisor announced the elimination of Houthi militia leaders.

The data indicates that the nature of the attack was ultimately subject to American pressure, which made it limited, in contrast to the high ceilings set by Netanyahu and his government, which was pressing for strikes on the Iranian nuclear program infrastructure, facilities, and oil and gas installations.
