US defeat against Yemen by the numbers Washington retreat after scandal
42 Attacks by Yemeni Forces on US Warships in 52 Days Force America to End War with Yemen Without Achieving Its Goals in Support of teh Zionist Regime
According to a report by the English section of “webangah News Agency” citing mehr News Agency, the Al-masirah news outlet provided statistical details on the second round of tensions between the U.S. and Yemen, which began on March 15 with intensified American attacks on various parts of Yemen and lasted until May 7. The report highlights notable military confrontations between Yemeni armed forces and two U.S. aircraft carriers—the USS Harry Truman and USS Vinson—along with their affiliated warships.
On March 11, 2025, Sayyid Abdul-Malik Badreddin al-Houthi, leader of Yemen’s Ansar Allah, issued a four-day ultimatum to the Zionist regime, demanding it open Gaza’s crossings and allow humanitarian aid into the region. After this deadline passed and Zionist crimes persisted in Gaza—including tightened blockades—Yemen resumed its military operations against Israeli shipping in the Red Sea and imposed a blockade on Zionist ports in response to their genocide in Gaza.
The U.S. immediately launched extensive airstrikes against civilian targets in Yemen,killing or injuring several civilians. In retaliation, Yemen’s armed forces targeted the USS Truman and its accompanying ships in the northernmost areas of the Red Sea—a far more complex operation than earlier clashes were U.S. carriers were only attacked toward end phases; this time strikes began immediately after escalation broke out.
On March 16, Yahya Saree, spokesperson for Yemen’s Armed Forces announced joint missile-drone attacks involving 18 ballistic/cruise missiles targeting USS Truman shocking Washington early into conflict escalation phase.
