Houthi Rebels In Yemen Facing Supply Shortages Amid US Strikes

Lt. Gen. Alexus Grynkewich, the head of U.S. Air Force Central, speaks at a news conference at the U.S. Embassy in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, Sept. 20, 2023. Grynkewich says Houthi rebels

The Houthi rebels in Yemen are reportedly experiencing a slowdown in their attacks due to dwindling supplies of drone swarms and anti-ship ballistic missiles, according to Lt. Gen. Alexus Grynkewich, the top U.S. Air Force commander for the Middle East. The U.S. retaliatory strikes on the Iran-backed militia group have impacted their operations, leading to a decrease in the frequency of their attacks.

The Houthi rebels have been targeting commercial and military ships in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden with drones and missiles launched from rebel-held areas in Yemen. While these attacks have caused disruptions to shipping routes, the U.S. and its allies have responded by increasing military presence in the region and conducting retaliatory strikes on Houthi ammunition and weapons facilities.
