According to the US, the Houthis have attacked commercial ships 26 times since November 19, with an upsurge in strikes during the Israel-Hamas conflict. According to Grant Shapps, “HMS Diamond and US warships successfully repelled the biggest onslaught in the Red Sea to yet by the Iranian-backed Houthis over night. With no harm done to herself or her crew, Diamond shot down several assault drones that were aimed at her and nearby commercial ships using Sea Viper missiles and cannons. The UK and its allies have previously stated unequivocally that the Houthis will face consequences if they continue their unlawful strikes. We’ll take the necessary steps to safeguard both the global economy and innocent lives.
