the houthis have vowed to retaliate. cnn's oren lieberman has the latest now from the pentagon. oren? >> reporter: victor and amara, the u.s. carried out further strikes against houthi targs in yemen on friday night local time. this time targeting radar facilities used by the houthis. much smaller set of strikes than we saw one night previously where the u.s. led a coalition of countries that targeted nearly 30 houthi sites across the country with more than 150 precision-guided missiles. those included radar sites, command and control nodes as well as storage and launch facilities for anti-ship ballistic missiles, anti-cruise ship missiles as well as drones. those are the sorts of weapons the houthis have used to target international shipping lanes in the red sea. one of the most critical international water ways in the world. following that series of strikes, we saw, according to the pentagon, the houthis launch an anti-ship ballistic missile into the gulf of aidan. it didn't hit anything, but following that strike, following that launch from the houthis,

right and reasonable way. >> and have you gotten any briefing for them or understanding about where this is? you hear more than a dozen targets. is that your understanding of that's it and then you see what they do, and then there's going to be more? or what's your understanding about where we are in this? >> well, i sit on the house intelligence committee and the house intelligence committee is briefed regularly on the conflict in the middle east, the threat from iranian proxies, iranian militias, houthi militias and everything going on in gaza as well. we paid close attention to this. these strikes of course just happened. we haven't been briefed on the specifics of these strikes but i suspect we will be in the days ahead. >> i appreciate your time, congressman. thank you very much. and as we try to get more information about what exactly is happening here with these significant strikes within yemen by the united states and the u.k., oren leiberman has more breaking details here you're learning. what do you know now, oren?

what we're going to see is terrorist activity, pinpoint targeting. they're going to go after the morale of those nations and corporations, erin, as you already indicated. 90' plus percent of the world's commerce pass through the suez into the red sea. so the message that the houthis want to get across with these kinds of pinpoint attacks very consistent, they're not going to give up on it unless, of course, this is successful is those organizations are going to say i'm going to go elsewhere, which means you're going to bear the cost of my rerouting my distribution requirements. so the houthis that demonstrated what they're up to, but there's not going to be a magnificent change in terms of their capabilities. we're not going to have the images that we have right now of what we see in gaza. >> and oren, as we look at this video and there's going to be more, we understand here from houthi official posting on twitter, which is where some of this plays out that there were raids in four places in -- at

from it. this targets the capabilities and tries to degrade the capabilities they have used to attack international shipping lanes over the course of the past several weeks and months, anderson. >> and oren, talk about the coalition that the u.s. has -- has involved in this. >> reporter: this is quite interesting. the u.s. and the u.k. from what we understand took part in the kinetic part of this operation in terms of firing the missiles and carrying out the strikes. but they were backed by a number of other countries here including austral you, bahrain, canada, and the netherlands. the u.s. was making sure this wasn't a unilet ral action and that they had international support. part of that was a diplomatic effort. there was a u.n. council resolution passed warning the houthis to stop international shipping in the red sea. there was also a joint statement put out by a number of countries in the u.s. effectively warning the houthis of the same thing that clearly didn't do anything to stop them. we've now seen 27 times the houthis have attacked

respond and is it enough or will the u.s., the uk and others feel compelled to act again. >> lots of questions left. thank you so much, oren, for that reporting. let's talk about it more with cnn's jim sciutto, cnn's national correspondent. and dan la moth, national security reporter for "the washington post." nice to see you all. jim, put this in context for us. >> listen, the u.s. was already involved as a player here in that they were a target. u.s. ships as well as ships from countries all over the world in the red sea, u.s. forces in iraq and syria, all by iran-backed proxies and the houthis are one of them. so it is clear that basically u.s. patience ran out here. what u.s. officials were telling me last night it was tuesday's attacks that were the straw that broke the camel's back. it was some 20 drones fired specifically at u.s. ships in the red sea, including a ship carrying jet fuel. the concern was had one of those

The Situation Room With Wolf Blitzer

these strikes certainly do carry a real risk of escalation right now. give us your reaction. >> yeah, wolf. the big situation here with these strikes is that, first of all, they are going to hit some of the targets as oren mentioned a highly likely target. there are a lot of anti-aircraft and anti-ship missiles located in that area. as far as the escalation, the possibilities of escalation are concerned, what can happen here is that the houthis are going to respond first to the u.s. ships and british ships in the red sea. then they could possibly target installations in saudi arabia. that could very much inflame tensions throughout the southern arabian peninsula at this particular point. so i think we're going to see some major activity in the next 24 hours or so. >> yeah, i think you're absolutely right. oren, i know the u.s. had sought to avoid this escalation, this

the pentagon to release a statement on the secretary of defense, lloyd austin, and his hospitalization and the pentagon is still facing questions about why it took so long to inform the white house and other security leaders that the defense secretary had been taken to the hospital in an ambulance. >> oren, tell us what is happening at this point? what is the pentagon doing to make sure this doesn't happen again? >> reporter: the key effort there is to make sure that this 30 day review of notification procedures is moving forward, that was ordered by the defense secretary's chief of staff to make sure this doesn't happen again. a situation where austin is in the hospital for an extended period of time, he was under general anesthesia when he came in and though there had been a delegation of responsibilities, no one knew that he was under general anesthesia, it seems and it took days the second time when he went back on new year's day, for others to find out, including president biden. and we also learned from

so fragile. when does it crash? i hope it's going to be during this next 12 months, because i don't want to be herbert hoover. the one president i just don't want to be is herbert hoover. >> let's bring in cnn's vanessa yurkevich to fact check what trump is saying about a certain crash. walk us through what a crash is, vanessa. actually, we will stop right there because we have breaking news from the pentagon secretary of defense lloyd austin's condition. oren liebermann is there for us. some big news coming out of the pentagon, oren? >> reporter: absolutely. walter reed national military medical center, where defense secretary lloyd austin has just been the course of the past eight days, has just put out a statement saying that defense secretary lloyd austin was diagnosed with prostate cancer last month. that is why he went to the hospital on december 22nd. it is from discomfort from that hospitalization on december 22nd, and overnight stay, that he was then we admitted to the

as a result. he also said the secretary has no intention of resigning and this chief of staff has no intention of residing and was invited will not ask the defense secretary to resign. in terms of travel, meetings, and upcoming events, that will be taken as they come and his recovery. his recovery is going well and there is a slow prognosis because the prostate cancer was diagnosed early. as much as we have answers on the medical side, we wait to learn more about the notification side and the failure to notify the president and other senior officials. >> oren , please stand by for it i want to go to who has been standing by. general, we understand that you have a personal relationship with the secretary of defense. i believe you described him as a friend. first, i want to get your reaction to the news that he dealt with prostate cancer and also get your perspective on the issue of transparency
