Rubio says Yemen strikes to continue until Houthis can no longer attack ships

US strikes on Yemen will continue until the Houthis no longer have the capability to attack global shipping and the US Navy, Secretary of State Marco Rubio tells the CBS News “Face the Nation” program.

He says there is no talk of US ground raids in Yemen, adding: “I don’t think there’s a necessity for it right now.”

Rubio also says that there is “no way” the Houthis would have the ability to attack global shipping without support from Iran.
