🚨 At least 74 people were killed and over 170 injured in a U.S. strike on Yemen’s Ras Issa fuel terminal, according to Houthi officials, marking the deadliest attack in Washington’s recent campaign against the group. The assault, which ignited a massive fire captured on video by Houthi-run Al-Masirah TV, drew swift international attention amid escalating Middle East tensions.
💥 The U.S. military defended the strike, calling it a move to disrupt Houthi funding and supply lines. However, protests erupted across Yemen on Friday as local communities mourned the casualties. Meanwhile, Israel reported intercepting a missile fired from Yemen, linking it to heightened regional volatility.
📅 The attack follows President Trump’s March order for "decisive military action" against the Houthis after the group threatened Israeli ships in the Red Sea. Critics argue the timing—just before U.S.-Iran nuclear talks in Rome—adds fuel to an already fiery geopolitical landscape.
🔥 Analysts warn of a worsening humanitarian crisis as cross-border conflicts intensify. With Gaza aid blockades and strategic port strikes dominating headlines, young global readers are left wondering: Will diplomacy cool tensions—or is this just the spark of a larger fire? 🌍💬
