Houthis

The Yemen-based Houthi terrorist group makes its first attack on a Chinese-owned ship—twice, with five missiles.

The strikes destroyed 18 anti-ship missiles in Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen, according to CENTCOM.

All four defendants face a maximum penalty of five years in prison if convicted of the false statements charges.

The crucial Red Sea route accounts for almost 20 percent of UK imports, which pass through the Suez Canal maritime checkpoints.

Houthi missiles ‘presented an imminent threat to U.S. Navy ships and merchant vessels in the region,’ CENTCOM said.

Washington’s UN envoy says actions against Iraqi, Syrian targets are ‘separate and distinct’ from joint operations against Yemen’s terrorist group.

The Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen have been targeting ships in the Red Sea and now they have struck a British-owned vessel.

Attack comes days after wide-ranging US strikes on multiple targets in Iraq and Syria said to be linked to Iran-backed militia groups.

Targets were underground weapons storage facilities, missile systems and launchers, air defense systems, and radars, Pentagon says.

Chinese influence and Red Sea regional tensions undermine US counter-strategy

Houthi member Mohammed al-Bukhaiti said that attacks on vessels that are ‘in any way connected with Israel’ would continue

Biden–Xi calls are ‘absolutely critical to maintaining direction in the relationship and following up on some of the issues from Woodside,’ the official said.
