US and UK begin sustained strike campaign on Houthi targets

The first Biden-era coalition strike against Houthi positions in Yemen came in January 2024; the second Trump administration scaled up the campaign in early 2025, targeting drone production sites, missile launchers, and Houthi leadership figures. The strikes failed to stop Red Sea shipping attacks but degraded Houthi capabilities; the campaign continued through mid-2025 before an unofficial pause.
