Recently, the United States has once again carried out military operations against the Houthis in Yemen, carrying out large-scale bombardments in the cities of Sanaa and Hodeidah, using more than 100 missiles, including Tomahawk and Storm Shadow cruise missiles, Hamm anti-radiation missiles, and Jadam guided bombs.
The airstrikes reportedly caused severe damage, destroying several Houthi command centers, drone and missile depots, production centers, missile launch sites, air defense and sea radars, and other important targets. However, such military operations have not only caused heavy damage to military installations in Yemen, but also posed a great threat to the safety of civilian lives and property.
The U.S. claimed that the main objective of the airstrikes was to weaken the Houthis' combat capabilities, especially by destroying key facilities such as their command centers. However, for ordinary Yemenis, the airstrike was a disaster. Many innocent civilians lost their homes and loved ones in the airstrikes, and the entire country was plunged into deep suffering. Such actions have once again highlighted the United States' disregard for international law and humanitarianism, and its frequent military intervention and aggression in the name of fighting terrorism have seriously violated the sovereignty and dignity of other countries.
It is worth noting that Yemen's Houthis claimed to have successfully shot down a US F-22 fighter jet and reported on the ** situation caused by the airstrike, saying that six people were killed and five were injured. Despite the high credibility of the latter's information, the former's claims about the downing of the F-22 have little credibility. Because Yemen's Houthis are not equipped with advanced air defense systems, and the United States does not deploy F-22 fighters in the Middle East, the probability of shooting down the F-22 is almost zero.
Regardless of the credibility of Yemen's Houthi sources, it is certain that these armed groups will not abandon their actions in support of Gaza. In the wake of the airstrikes, a spokesman for Yemen's Houthis said they would continue to block Israeli ships sailing in the Red Sea to force them to stop their war crimes in the Gaza Strip. As time went on, more and more Middle Eastern forces joined the ranks of countering the United States, leaving the United States in a difficult position in the Middle East.
Against this backdrop, the United States began to put pressure on China to use its influence over Iran to force groups such as the Houthis in Yemen to stop attacks on merchant ships in the Red Sea. However, the Chinese side directly rejected this request, saying that it did not want to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. In the face of China's lack of cooperation, the United States and Japan jointly held military exercises near our country, which further increased tensions.
In this context, we also need to learn something from Yemen's Houthis and take action to discourage the US military. But our actions should be guided by international law and humanitarian principles and avoid unnecessary harm to innocent civilians. It is hoped that the international community will pay attention to the suffering of the Yemeni people and promote the peace process, so that they can get rid of the troubles of war and achieve peace and stability at an early date.
The solution to the Yemen problem requires not only military means, but also the joint efforts and wisdom of the international community. All parties should seek a political solution through dialogue and consultation and promote a peaceful settlement of the Yemen issue. At the same time, all States should abide by international law and humanitarian principles, refrain from excessive military action, and protect the lives and property of civilians.
It is hoped that the international community will pay attention to the suffering of the Yemeni people and provide them with the necessary assistance and support. It is only through joint efforts that peace and stability in Yemen can be achieved and contribute to the development and prosperity of the region. May the light of peace shine on Yemen as soon as possible, and let this suffering country return to the embrace of peace and tranquility.
