The U.S. military offensive against Houthi rebels in Yemen is approaching a staggering $1 billion in costs, yet reports indicate limited success and a lack of a coherent strategy. Recent airstrikes have resulted in civilian casualties and have exacerbated the dire humanitarian situation in the region. President Trump has showcased videos of these airstrikes, claiming major victories, but critics highlight the minimal impact on the Houthi threat. Meanwhile, the Houthis have shot down several U.S. drones and continue to resist U.S. forces despite ongoing bombings. Senators have urged caution, questioning whether this escalating involvement could lead the U.S. into another prolonged conflict. As the humanitarian crisis worsens, the Pentagon acknowledges challenges in targeting effectiveness amidst daily airstrikes.
