Video Of Houthi Strike Shocks Viewers
President Trump posted a dramatic video of Houthi strike on Truth Social, showing what appears to be a deadly U.S. drone attack on Houthi fighters in Yemen. The footage shows a large group of individuals gathered in a remote desert area before a fiery explosion decimates the site, leaving dozens dead.
The drone footage revealed roughly 70 people standing in an oval formation, seemingly receiving instructions. Moments later, a bomb drops from above, triggering a massive fireball and plume of smoke. As the smoke cleared, bodies lay scattered near a visible crater.
Trump Celebrates Destruction Of Terror Cell
โThese Houthis gathered for instructions on an attack,โ Trump wrote alongside the video of Houthi strike. โOops, there will be no attack by these Houthis! They will never sink our ships again!โ
Trumpโs post did not clarify the exact timing of the airstrike. The White House and U.S. Central Command have not confirmed details or commented on the authenticity of the footage.
Airstrikes Continue As Red Sea Threat Persists
The Houthis have launched dozens of assaults on commercial vessels in the Red Sea since 2023, threatening global trade near the Suez Canal. In response, Trumpโs administration ramped up its offensive earlier this year.
โThe Iran-backed Houthi Terrorists have been decimated by the relentless strikes over the past two weeks,โ Trump said. โWe hit them every day and night โ harder and harder.โ
He declared that attacks would persist until the group stops targeting ships. โStop shooting at U.S. ships, and we will stop shooting at you. Otherwise, we have only just begun.โ
Signal Leak Revealed Strike Plans Early
Ironically, plans for the Houthi strike were unintentionally leaked. National Security Adviser Mike Waltz reportedly included journalist Jeffrey Goldberg in a Signal group chat with senior officials, revealing upcoming military action days before it occurred.
Trump re-designated the Houthis as a Foreign Terrorist Organization in January. The group claims 58 of its fighters have been killed since U.S. strikes began on March 15.
As the video of Houthi strike spreads across social media, debates rage over the ethics and risks of showing graphic military action, especially when paired with presidential celebration.
