"The private security firm Ambrey reported the British-registered, Lebanese-operated cargo ship had been on its way to Bulgaria after leaving Khorfakkan in the United Arab Emirates. "
This ship didn’t have a damn thing to do with Israel.
Yemen’s Houthi rebels are suspected in an attack on a Belize-flagged ship traveling through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait connecting the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. The ship targeted in the assault Sunday reported sustaining damage after “an explosion in close proximity to the vessel.” That's according to the British military’s United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations center. It said that the ship's crewmembers were safe. Ship-tracking data from MarineTraffic.com analyzed by The Associated Press identified the vessel targeted as the Rubymar. Its Beirut-based manager could not be reached for comment.
Not sure if you paid any attention the last months but the Brits joined America in their war on Yemen. They started bombing Yemen along with America to help israel’s Genocide.
And Britain subsequently got put on the “blocked countries” list
It’s truly astounding that you think Britain should just be able to bomb Yemen and not expect retaliation.
How do the cool libs say it again, FAFO?
This was a Lebanese operated, British registered ship. I think the Houthis, supposedly in opposition to Israel, just killed people from Lebanon… which is also in opposition to Israel.
This is yet another reason why you don’t attack civilians. In a globalized world, people from any country can be working “under the flag” of another country. They just attacked civilians of a nation that has also been attacked by Israel.
Lebanon would be in full rights to attack the Houthis in retaliation. As you put it, they fucked around, and they may find out.
I think the Houthis, supposedly in opposition to Israel, just killed people from Lebanon… which is also in opposition to Israel.
A) The Houthis have not killed a single person so far during their entire blockade. All crews dismounted their ships on life boats
people from Lebanon… which is also in opposition to Israel
???
All crews dismounted their ships on life boats
That’s surprisingly considerate.
