Janice Yu reports from outside the United Nations ahead of their security meeting on the strikes in Yemen.

British and US forces have launched attacks on Houthi targets in Yemen in a further ratcheting up of tensions in the Middle East. The missile strikes came after the West warned the Iranian-backed group to stop attacking shipping in the Red Sea. Houthi rebels based in Yemen have targeted ships linked to or travelling to Israel in what they said was a campaign of support for Palestinians in Gaza. US officials said the strikes had been carried out by warship-launched Tomahawk missiles, as well as fighter jets and a submarine.

The United States and Britain have carried out military strikes against targets in Yemen in retaliation for Houthi rebel attacks on shipping in the Red Sea. The Houthis and the group's backer Iran have condemned the strikes. The US and the UK say the action is aimed at protecting international trade routes. For more on this, we talk to Frank Ledwidge. He's a senior lecturer in strategic studies at Portsmouth University and a former British military intelligence officer.

Video released by U.S. Central Command and the U.K. Ministry of Defence showed U.S.-led airstrikes on Yemen's Houthi forces in response to their attacks on shipping in the Red Sea.

U.S. officials say the U.S. and British militaries bombed more than a dozen sites used by the Iranian-backed Houthis.
