The U.S. has deployed heavy, radar-evading B-2 bombers to the Diego Garcia base in the Indian Ocean, a warning to Iran and Yemen’s Houthi militia that American airstrikes could become more intense if Houthi attacks on Israel and Red Sea shipping don’t stop.

The B-2 Spirit bombers arrived this week from their base in Missouri, said a spokesperson for the U.S. Strategic Command. The bombers are part of the Pentagon’s efforts “to deter, detect and, if necessary, defeat strategic attacks against the United States and its allies,” the spokesperson said.
