President Donald Trump said the United States would hold Iran responsible for the Houthis' actions and warned both would soon receive a "major military punishment".

The international oil benchmark Brent crude surged past $100 a barrel for the first time since May, up 7%, while world leaders expressed alarm after Yemen's rebels hit oil tankers in the Red Sea.
