The joint operation Friday targeted Houthi offensive capabilities after the militant group targeted more than 100 ships, sank two and hijacked another in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden in support of Hamas following the Oct. 7 attack on Israel.
U.S. and British warships and aircraft targeted military outposts, including five Houthi compounds, and at least one airport in Yemen.
U.S. Central Command controls U.S. forces and military operations in the Middle East and said the strikes occurred at 5 p.m. local time.

I know this was reported here, but I didn't know that Britain was also involved.
Britain is perhaps our most steadfast ally and I'm glad to see them stepping up to the plate to defend freedom of navigation ops in conjunction with US forces around the world.

Look, you and I will never, ever agree on this issue, and I accept that, but I will always call you out on this, please don't take it personally, I certainly don't, what is said on a chat board really has no bearing on real life.

I certainly wouldn't want to impinge on your right to express your opinion, and I wouldn't want you to impinge on my right to do the same, and I haven't seen you do that at all.
Peace out
Dan.
Have a great Sunday and the upcoming week.
