Report: Israel Asks U.S. to Resume Attacks on Houthis After Ship Losses
YEMEN, JUL 10 – Israel seeks US military renewal and a multinational coalition to counter Iran-backed Houthis after deadly attacks on two commercial ships, officials said.
- On July 10, 2025, Israel called on the United States to restart airstrikes against Yemen’s Iran-supported Houthi rebels and to partner with other nations in a joint effort to address the rising assaults on international maritime routes.
- This appeal follows renewed Houthi aggression after a May 2025 ceasefire paused U.S. aerial campaigns, with the Houthis increasingly targeting Israeli and international vessels in the Red Sea since late 2023.
- Israeli officials have urged for more coordinated and intensified military actions involving additional nations, emphasizing that the threat posed by the Houthis can no longer be addressed by Israel alone following recent missile strikes on Israel and attacks that sank two commercial vessels.
- The U.S. has previously conducted 1,100 airstrikes costing over $1 billion, supported by two aircraft carriers, while the Houthis vowed their strikes 'will not pass without response,' signaling ongoing conflict risks.
- The renewed calls for action suggest potential deeper U.S. involvement and a broader coalition may emerge to address the growing threat to maritime security and regional stability.

The threat from their traditional enemies has (for now) receded. It's the relative newcomer who continues to fight: the Houthi rebels in Yemen. Israel is pushing for major action.
