Yemen's Houthi rebels said they will attack American ships sailing through the Red Sea. The group's government leaders made this promise on Saturday after the United States bombed Iranian nuclear buildings. Houthi fighters work with Iran and have attacked boats before around these important water roads. The rebel government called the American strikes unfair and wrong. They promised to help any Arab or Muslim country that America or Israel attacks.

The Houthis made their threat just hours after American forces hit Iran's nuclear places. This happened when the United States joined Israel's fight against Iran. The rebels control parts of Yemen and have shot at ships many times before. They use the Red Sea as their main area for these attacks. Many countries depend on this water route for trade and business.

Security experts worry that more groups might join this growing fight. The Houthis could make shipping much more dangerous around Yemen's coast. Other countries that support Iran might also start attacking American targets. The American Navy has sent more warships to the Red Sea area. Military leaders expect the Houthis to try revenge attacks very soon.
