A major shift has occurred in Yemen as U.S. forces carried out their most decisive strike yet on April 17, targeting the Houthi-controlled Ras Isa port. CENTCOM confirmed the operation, emphasizing the port’s role in financing Houthi operations through illegal fuel imports and extortion.
The strike is part of an unrelenting campaign that began March 15 and has intensified with daily bombardments. Alongside the airstrike, new U.S. sanctions were issued against the International Bank of Yemen, cutting off a major financial lifeline. With up to $2.16 billion in annual fuel-related income at stake, the Houthis now face unprecedented pressure.
