US President Joe Biden has said that attacks on the Houthis will continue even as he acknowledged that the group have not stopped their Red Sea attacks.

The US carried out a fifth round of strikes on Yemen on Thursday after a US ship was struck by a Houthi drone.

White House spokesman John Kirby told reporters that US forces "took out a range of Houthi missiles" that were about to be fired towards the Red Sea.

He said the American attacks took place on Wednesday and again on Thursday.

On Wednesday, a Houthi drone hit a "US owned and operated bulk carrier ship" which later had to be rescued by India's navy. It came as the US designated the Houthis as a terrorist organisation.

"Well, when you say working are they stopping the Houthis? No," Mr Biden told reporters in Washington DC on Thursday before he left for a speech in North Carolina.

"Are they gonna continue? Yes."

So Putin is threatening the countries bordering Russia, provoking civil wars and manipulating their governments. Some of these former Soviet countries are turning to NATO for protection and Russia now feels threatened after all this aggression and is blaiming the west for beeing such a cunt?

😂 This Article is full of shit and Russia can fuck right off. They are not the victim here, they are the fucking agressor.

The article has actual sources that prove that US agression and also via their nato vassals is the cause of what happened in 2014 up until now.

When Russia tried to reach out to be more integrated with Western Europe they were continually rebuffed on orders from the US.

There was no reason for this of course, the USSR already dissolved. No reason besides the US trying to prevent a united Europe.

But anyway, i know you're going to spew psychotic verbal diarrhea again, so I'm out.
