In short:
The Department of Defence has confirmed Australia provided support for the US strikes on underground bunkers used by Yemen’s Houthi rebels “through access and overflight for US aircraft in northern Australia”.
The US said its strikes were ordered by President Joe Biden to degrade the Houthi weapons stores and send a message to “our adversaries”, which includes Iran.
An Australian official said the support was “consistent with our long-standing alliance commitment and close cooperation, demonstrating the interoperability of our militaries”.
