[Some of the largest shipping companies
in the world have been forced to reroute their
vessels at considerable costs
after Yemen’s Houthi group targeted ships
headed towards Israeli ports in solidarity
with Palestinians.

The Iran-aligned group has demanded
that Israel allow humanitarian aid
to enter Gaza, which has been reeling from
more than two months of Israeli siege
and bombardment. The Yemeni group
has also called on Israel to end its brutal
war on Gaza that has killed over
19,000 Palestinians]

Will in any way ease tensions further and is more likely even to escalate more violent unrest.

[Livia]

The Straight of Hormuz has been dangerous for decades. It's the busiest straight in the world, something like 25-30% of the world's oil passes through it. If terrorists are allowed to control it, well... those who think it has nothing to do with us would learn a swift lesson.

The USA/UK attacks are only military hits
in Yemen, the Terrorists are in control of some land

that's what they hit.

The Terrorists (Houthis) say 5 are dead.

[user104658]

I really fail to see how Western nations taking action AGAIN in the Middle East.

Normally I'd agree Joey but the Suez makes the Red Sea pretty much the most significant stretch of water there is, by quite some way, and "keeping it moving" is genuinely of global significance. Its one of the few examples where I's say a "zero tolerance" approach is pretty much essential.

So long as they're only targetting the attacking bases and vessels I think it has to be done. Of course, I'm not here for it if they decide that "boats are being hidden under schools" or whatever.

[Ninastar]

I heard there was tunnels in the boats

The terrorists escalated tensions in the middle east by targeting any ship in the area. No doubt the same people saying leave the terrorists alone, will be moaning at the government as fuel prices and inflation go through the roof again

So what does the actual government in Yemen think about this

Yemen's internationally-recognised government has condemned the Houthis for "dragging the country into conflict" after the US and UK-led attacks on Houthi targets this week.

In a statement, shared by the official Saba news agency on Friday, the Aden-based authority accused the rebels of "creating a conflict for propaganda", following their attacks on merchant shipping in the Red Sea, and "false claims" of support for Gaza.

It stressed the need to restore legitimate state institutions in Yemen to ensure security in the Red Sea.

BBC News Text :
[The Guardian leads with an attack on an
American-owned container ship by
Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels in
the Gulf of Aden,
part of a major shipping channel
which connects to the Red Sea, on Monday.
It comes after US and UK strikes on
Houthi positions in response to
previous attacks on Red Sea shipping last week.
The paper says the attack
"represented a widening of the theatre
of war beyond the Red Sea" and will add
to fears that the strikes "have not degraded
the militia group's ability to
threaten commercial shipping".]

A tanker with links to the UK is on fire in the Gulf of Aden after a being hit by a missile fired by the Houthis.

The Yemeni movement said it targeted the Marlin Luanda on Friday in response to "American-British aggression".

The US and UK have launched air strikes on Houthi targets in response to attacks on ships in the Red Sea region.

The US military said the Iran-backed group hit the tanker with an anti-ship ballistic missile and naval ships had responded to its distress signal.

The operator of the vessel is registered as being Oceonix Services Ltd, a UK registered company.

The tanker flies under the flag of the Marshall Islands and is operated on behalf of Trafigura - a multinational trading company domiciled in Singapore.

Trafigura said the strike caused a fire in one of the ship's cargo tanks and firefighting equipment was being used to contain it. No injuries were reported.

It is the latest attack on commercial shipping by the Houthis in and around the Red Sea. The group says it is targeting vessels in the region in support of Palestinians in Gaza, where Israel is fighting Hamas.

In a statement, a Houthi spokesperson claimed the Marlin Luanda was a British ship and was targeted in response to "American-British aggression against our country".

The UK government said attacks on commercial shipping are "completely unacceptable" and that Britain and its allies "reserve the right to respond appropriately".

on Yemen has just been done



[The US and Britain have struck more
than a dozen Houthi targets in Yemen
after a surge in attacks by the
Iran-backed militia group on ships
in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.

It is the fourth joint action taken by the
two allies in an attempt to deter attacks
by the group on vessels,
including a missile strike this week that
set fire to a cargo ship.

According to US officials, American and
British fighter jets hit about 18 sites across
a number of locations, targeting missiles,
launchers, rockets, drones and unmanned
surface and underwater vehicles.
The US fighter jets launched from the
USS Dwight D Eisenhower aircraft carrier,
which is in the Red Sea.]
