The Red Sea explained: The Houthis, naval forces, and commercial ships
Who are the Houthis? Why do they target merchant ships? How do naval forces protect the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden?
Hovedinnhold
In November, Houthis started attacking and hijacking merchant ships, claiming solidarity with Palestine. The rebel group controls parts of the Yemeni coastline in the Red Sea and has since attacked civilian ships in the area. In response, US and British navies have targeted Houthi military positions in Yemen.
