Houthis Fire Missiles at Israel, Escalating US-Iran War
About this episode
Houthis in Yemen, backed by Iran, launch missiles at Israel, marking their first direct hit in the US-Israel war against Iran. The attacks could disrupt shipping through the Bab al-Mandab Strait, where nearly two hundred vessels have been hit since late 2023. Irans blockage of the Strait of Hormuz has caused oil prices to soar, with Trump holding off on bombing Irans power plants until April 6th. Talks may be in the works amidst ongoing strikes.

Global News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now! — Houthis Fire Missiles at Israel, Escalating US-Iran War. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
It's March 28. You're listening to Global News today, AI-powered global coverage. Houthis and Yemen, backed by Iran, just fired off a bunch of missiles at Israel, marking their first direct hit in this U.S.-Israel war against Iran, that kicked off late February. These guys control Yemen's Red Sea coast after grabbing power in a civil war over a decade ago, and they see themselves as part of Iran's axis of. Resistance alongside Hezbollah and Hamas. Israel knocked down at least one missile, but the real worry is these attacks could mess with shipping through the Bob Al-Mondob Strait, where they've hit nearly 200 vessels since late 2023, forcing rerouts around Africa. Before this salvo, Houthis spokespeople warned they'd jump in if the Red Sea got dragged into the fight, and now they're vowing more strikes until the Keedaw Resistance groups cools off. With Iran blocking the strait of Hormuz, oil prices are through the roof, Trump's holding off on bombing their power plants to April 6th, if they reopen it, and talks might be
brewing even as strikes keep flying.
