The footage, reportedly captured by a drone, depicts approximately 70 individuals gathered in a formation, only to be engulfed moments later by a massive explosion that resulted in a large fireball and a dark plume of smoke rising into the sky.

As the camera zooms out, several vehicles can be seen in the vicinity of the blast site, which appears to be a remote area. When the smoke dissipated, numerous bodies were visible on the ground alongside a large crater.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump stated that the individuals targeted were Houthis preparing for an assault, declaring, “Oops, there will be no attack by these Houthis! They will never sink our ships again!”

While the timing of the airstrike remains unclear, it is part of ongoing US military operations against the Iranian-backed Houthi group, which has been attacking commercial vessels in the Red Sea since 2023.
