The operation against the Houthis in Yemen marks the beginning of the Trump administration’s “maximum pressure” strategy on Iran.

Axar.az reports that this was stated by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

“This is a strong signal and a radical shift from the previous administration’s policies. The Houthis and Iran must understand that this is only the beginning. We will not allow disruptions to the freedom of navigation that slow global trade and increase inflationary pressures. Two weeks ago, Trump announced the 'maximum pressure' strategy against Iran,” he said.

Notably, since yesterday, the U.S. military has launched operations against the Houthis, striking the capital Sanaa and other cities.
