How did they not? Surely you can't be arguing that the civilian shipping vessels did something to deserve being fired upon?
Which civilians? The retaliatory strike targeted military targets only, and was intentionally telegraphed to destroy weapons with minimal loss of life.
If you're talking about previous conflicts in Yemen, those are completely irrelevant to the recent attacks on commercial shipping.
