US President Donald Trump on Monday said that attacks on the Iran-backed Houthis will continue until they are no longer a threat to shipping and freedom of navigation, warning the rebels and their Iranian supporters of "real pain", which he said is "yet to come".

"The choice for the Houthis is clear: Stop shooting at US ships, and we will stop shooting at you. Otherwise, we have only just begun, and the real pain is yet to come, for both the Houthis and their sponsors in Iran," Trump said in a Truth Social post.

This warning comes as the Trump administration got caught up in a controversy over war plan discussions between senior US officials which got leaked to a journalist on Signal chat.
