A single night of strikes against Houthi militants won't be enough to deter Red Sea attacks, military expert says

• The US and UK launched retaliatory strikes against Houthi rebels in Yemen on Thursday.
• The strikes come after the Iran-backed rebel group conducted dozens of attacks on commercial ships.
• But a military strategist said more strikes will likely be necessary to deter the Houthis. 

The US will likely have to conduct a series of strikes against Yemen's Houthi rebels in the coming days or weeks if it wants to substantially impact the militant group's capabilities, a military expert told Business Insider.
