Second ship attacked by Yemen's Houthi rebels sinks in the Red Sea

Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels have attacked ships in the Red Sea since November, claiming the strikes are retaliation against Israel and its allies.

CBS News

the Houthis have repeatedly downed General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper drones in the years since they seized Yemen's capital, Sanaa, in 2014. Those attacks have exponentially increased since the start of the Israel-Hamas war and the Houthis launched their campaign targeting shipping in the Red Sea corridor… The rebels maintain that they target ships linked to Israel, the U.S., or the U.K. to force an end to Israel’s campaign against Hamas in Gaza.

An almost-empty Red Sea, which has historically been a sea of globalisation, and which usually handles 12-15% of global trade annually, has become one of the most powerful symbols of the dying international order. The Houthis’ asymmetrical warfare has truly made the Bab-el-Mandeb the Gate of Tears, at least for Western ships.

The reason for this was the successive attacks launched by the Yemeni Houthi group on Israeli ships in the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea, as well as the targeting of ships from countries supporting the Occupation in the genocidal war it is waging against the people of Gaza, most notably American and British ships.
