In a statement to Parliament today, UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak justified the recent joint military strikes by the United States and the United Kingdom against the Houthis in Yemen, asserting that the actions were taken in self-defence and in accordance with international law.

The overnight strikes targeted eight locations, marking the second wave of raids within a month. Sunak emphasized that the military intervention was a response to an “ongoing and imminent threat” posed by the Houthis. The Prime Minister adamantly denied any connection between the strikes in the Red Sea and Israel’s conflict in Gaza.
