The Houthis in Yemen shared a striking animation following U.S. President Donald Trump's vow to "rain down hell." The video, which shows countless coffins covered with American flags, infuriated American civilians. In the Yemen attack that began with Trump's order to strike, 53 people lost their lives, and 98 others were injured.
The Houthis in Yemen shared an animation showing countless coffins covered with American flags after U.S. President Trump swore that he would "rain hell" on the Houthis. The video sparked significant outrage among American civilians.
NAVY SHIPS ARE SINKING TOO
The video begins with a single American flag on top of a coffin, but as the camera pulls back, dozens of coffins wrapped in flags can be seen floating in the waters near sinking navy ships. Large vessels are set ablaze, surrounded by coffins as they burn in the water.
"TERRORISTS CANNOT DISTINGUISH BETWEEN DREAM AND REALITY"
Hussain Abdul-Hussain, a researcher at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, stated on X, "The Houthis shared an animation of coffins covered with U.S. flags floating around destroyed warships. These terrorists really cannot understand the difference between dream and reality." While the Houthis' propaganda video sparked significant outrage among American civilians, it also fueled fears that it was a warning message indicating the Houthis were escalating their violence.
TRUMP'S YEMEN ORDER
In a statement on March 7, the Houthis said they had given Israel a four-day deadline to allow aid into Gaza, otherwise they would resume naval operations against Israel. U.S. President Donald Trump announced on March 15 via his Truth Social account that he had ordered the military to launch a "major attack" against the Houthis in Yemen.
The Houthi leader Abdulmalik al-Houthi stated that U.S. aircraft and warships would be targets for the Houthis, warning that as long as they continued their attacks, the disruptions to maritime operations would also affect Washington. The Iran-backed Houthis reported that 53 people were killed and 98 injured in airstrikes carried out by the U.S. and the U.K. in several cities, including the capital Sana'a.
