Strikes by the United States and Britain on Houthi bases in Yemen yielded good results, but allied forces will continue to monitor the situation for possible counterattacks. This was stated by Pentagon representative General Patrick Ryder, according to Reuters.
"Our initial assessment is that we had good effects," he said. "We will continue to monitor and as the president and (Defense) Secretary Austin have said, we will continue to take necessary action."
According to him, no one wants to see a broader regional conflict. However, it is crucial to prevent such dangerous and reckless behavior towards civilian courts, the strikes that undermine the global economy.
