Red Sea

Months of Houthi attacks in the Red Sea have disrupted global shipping, forcing firms to re-route to longer and more expensive journeys around Southern Africa.

The United States and Britain carried out the strikes against Houthi targets in response to the attacks on shipping.

The Houthis have vowed to continue their attacks in the Red Sea as long as Israel continues to commit "crimes against Palestinians."

After a three-day hiatus, the Yemen-based, Iran-backed Houthi terrorist group has commenced attacks on the Red Sea targeting ships.

The Houthis have adopted a new narrative in which they now interpret their war in Yemen as part of a regional struggle for the Palestinians.

The engagement was one of three separate incidents of Houthi attacks on ships in the Red Sea on Saturday morning, according to US Central Command.

Ambrey said the tanker was registered under Union Maritime Ltd, a UK company, in 2019 before changing its registration details, including name and operator, last month.

Muhammad Ali Al-Houthi condemns American-British strikes in Yemen, alleging aid to Gaza blockade; Red Sea shipping attacks persist.

Chief negotiator for the Houthi movement told Reuters that they have provided assurances to both China and Russia that their vessels will pass through the Red Sea unprovoked by the Houthis.

The Houthi attacks in Bab el-Mandeb strait have completely halted the trade activities of the Port of Eilat, placing it in a complicated financial situation.
