USS Eisenhower under direct fire of Yemen’s Houthis

Yemen’s Houthis said they launched a missile strike on a US aircraft carrier in the Red Sea in response to deadly US and British strikes on Yemen, Reuters reports.

Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree said in a televised statement that the strike was a response to the ongoing bombardment of Yemen and the “oppression of the Palestinian people.” He also noted:

 “The hit was direct and accurate thanks to Allah.”

US and British armed forces said they struck Houthi targets in Yemen on Thursday to prevent the militant group from further disrupting shipping in the Red Sea.

Britain’s Ministry of Defence said the joint operation hit three sites in the Red Sea port city of Hodeidah, which it said contained drones and surface-to-air weapons. The ministry said:

“As ever, the utmost care was taken in planning the strikes to minimise any risk to civilians or non-military infrastructure. Conducting the strikes in the hours of darkness should also have mitigated yet further any such risks.”

Six US and British strikes killed 16 people and wounded 41, including civilians, Saree said.

Houthis will “meet escalation with escalation”

Meanwhile, Houthi official Mohammed al-Bukhaiti said on X, warning that the rebels would “meet escalation with escalation”:

“The American-British aggression will not prevent us from continuing our military operations in support of Palestine.” 

Houthi spokesman Mohammed Abdelsalam also said the strikes were a “brutal aggression” against Yemen as punishment for supporting Gaza.

In Tehran, Houthi-allied Iran condemned the strikes as “violations of Yemen’s sovereignty and territorial integrity…, international laws and human rights”, Iranian state media reported. Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson Nasser Kanaani said:

“The aggressor US and British governments are responsible for the consequences of these crimes against the Yemeni people.” 

The Houthis, who control the capital and Yemen’s most populous areas, have attacked international ships in the Red Sea since November in solidarity with Palestinians in the war between Israel and Hamas, leading to retaliatory strikes by the US and Britain since February.

Les États-Unis déplacent le porte-avions USS Eisenhower vers la mer Méditerranée

Les États-Unis déplacent le porte-avions USS Eisenhower de la mer Rouge vers la mer Méditerranée. Normalement basé dans le Pacifique, le groupe porte-avions USS Eisenhower est en mer Rouge depuis la mi-octobre pour combattre les Houthis du Yémen, qui attaquent périodiquement Israël avec des missiles balistiques et tirent presque quotidiennement sur les navires marchands en route vers le canal de…

Wings Around the Globe Rally

Leg 6

AANG: You are looking live at Melbourne Airport.

(Gabriel eyes the leaderboard. Marinette’s plaque blinks at the top.)

MARINETTE: Yep. First place. Not bad for a baker girl.

(As she leaves, Gabriel adresses Nathalie and Cash.)

GABRIEL: Now, listen up. It’s time to make yourselves useful.

Starting line: Melbourne Airport in Melbourne, Australia

Starting positions:

Marinette Dupain-Cheng

Gabriel Agreste

Nathalie Sancoeur

Cash

(The racers soar over people canoeing in Port Phillip Bay.)

LEG 6: AUSTRALIA > ANTARCTICA

4,583 km

TOPH (V.O.): This is our sixth and shortest leg. These racers are lucky to have dressed warm, because they’re going to the ice hole of the Earth, Antarctica.

———————————————————————————

(From above, Nathalie and Cash shadow Marinette. With a smirk, Cash dives and swoops in behind Marinette, knocking off her GPS antenna.)

MARINETTE: Ah! (GASPS)

MARINETTE: My antenna!

(The antenna falls into the ocean and sinks.)

MARINETTE: No. No, no, no! What am I gonna do?!

(Marinette circles the splash and flies off-course.)

MARINETTE: (message breaking) Hawaii, are you there? Do you read? I am low on fuel.

(An alarm goes off. Marinette sees her flashing fuel gauge, which nears empty.)

MARINETTE: Oh, no! Oh, boy.

(She looks around for any sign of dry land. Nothing but vast ocean as far as the eye can see. Suddenly, a jet appears behind her, piloted by Adora.)

MARINETTE: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

ADORA: Unknown rider, unknown rider. You have entered restricted airspace. Why haven’t you responded to radio contact?

MARINETTE: Somebody cut off my antenna.

ADORA: Identify yourself.

MARINETTE: I’m Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

ADORA: Roger that. Bogey has been identified as Dupain-Cheng Seven.

MARINETTE: I’m running on vapours. I need to land.

(Another jet arrives, piloted by Catra.)

CATRA: What are you doing out here with an empty tank?

MARINETTE: Well, I thought I’d refuel in Hawaii, but...

ADORA: Hawaii is 375 miles southwest of here.

MARINETTE: What?

CATRA: Listen, Dupain-Cheng. You’d better follow us to the boat. No bingo fields around here.

MARINETTE: “Bingo fields?”

CATRA: Places to land.

MARINETTE: “The boat?”

CATRA: The USS Dwight D. Eisenhower.

(Marinette and the jet pilots arrive at the ship.)

ADORA: Bow, this is Adora, checking in as frag plus one. Check.

BOW: Two. Go ahead, Adora.

ADORA: Bogey is civilian and needs emergency fuel.

BOW: Copy that.

GLIMMER: (OVER P.A.) Princess Alliance, rig the barricade for the incoming civilian. Repeat, rig the barricade for the incoming civilian.

HORDAK: You heard her, ladies! Rig the barricade! Chop, chop!

ADORA: (to Marinette) Let’s line you up for the barricade. All you have to do is throttle on back and call the ball, and hopefully end up in the spaghetti.

MARINETTE: What? Wait, no, wait! Wait a second! Um, uh, guys, I’m not sure I can do this.

CATRA: I don’t see how you have a choice.

MARINETTE: Okay. But that runway is moving.

CATRA: We’ll set you up on the glide path.

MARINETTE: Runways are not supposed to move. Okay. I’m okay. I’m going to be fine.

ADORA: Take it easy.

MARINETTE: Moving runway, moving runway. There it is. Here we go.

ADORA: Throttle on back.

MARINETTE: Maybe if I just came around again.

ADORA: Level your wings.

CATRA: Easy with it.

HORDAK: Cut! Cut!

MARINETTE: Stop!

(Marinette comes in too fast. She heads straight for a net they had set up. Her rear wheel makes contact with the arresting wire, which stretches like a sling shot and it immediately stops her before she hits the barrier.)

(The Princess Alliance cheers as Marinette looks around at them and smiles.)

HORDAK: We’ve got you, Dupain-Cheng.

(She is escorted below deck.)

ADORA: Come on, let’s get you fixed up, refuelled and back in the race. You are way behind.

MARINETTE: Thanks. You saved me out there.

———————————————————————————-

(After getting her plane fixed and taking off from the Eisenhower, Marinette tries to navigate through pouring rain from a major thunderstorm and the monstrous swell of waves on the Southern Ocean. Her wheel hits the surface and sends her spiraling out of control. She tries to climb a giant breaker and barrels through the crest, but suffers engine failure.)

MARINETTE: Mayday! Mayday! Mayday! I’m going down! 18 degrees north, six minutes, 119…!

(She hurdles into the ocean, but forces herself back up.)

(The waves continue to thrash and force her underwater, but each time, she fights her way to the surface. Her plane battered and bruised, she eventually sinks to the bottom.)

(Later, rescue staff dives into the water with a net and airlifts Marinette to Antarctica, dropping her off on McMurdo Station’s runway surrounded by her family and friends.)

ALYA: Marinette!

NINO: Is she okay?

SABINE: Quick! Get her to the hospital!
