Public opinion regarding the Houthi attacks is sharply divided, with a notable number expressing support for the Houthis as defenders of Yemen and Palestine, while others condemn their actions as reckless and harmful to civilians. The feedback reflects deep geopolitical tensions, concerns about collateral damage, and varying perspectives on international maritime laws, ultimately painting a complex and polarized sentiment.

Because I would not want anyone to get banned because of a post of mine, I just want to remind people that because the Houthis are on the U.S. terrorist watch list, expressing suppport for them would be a content policy violation.

I do however, support Yemen's self defense against a state that commits genocide.

This looks like AI generated video. The only parts of the video that look legit are the b-roll of the people getting pulled out of the water and the bombed-out vans.

I should add, the story could potentially be true and the video supplemented using GPT for engagement.

I thought that footage at the start was one of the intentional sinkings recently, like for diving or something?

Sounds like they want another bombing attack

Imagine being such a bigoted supremacist that you feel the need to place "a curse upon (xyz entire religion that I hate)" on your flag like the Houthis do lol

The Houthis are terrorist grifters who attack ships for social media so failed countries like Iran send them money because as a result of poor decisions by the Houthi terrorists in occupied Western Yemen they’ve destroyed their economy and need any sort of money to survive

They are often making insane claims such as saying they’ve sank US aircraft carriers and shot down F-22’s

&gt; The two consecutive attacks were the first since June, after a months-long silence that followed the start of the US-Houthi ceasefire in May.

This is a bizarre sentence. How can you possibly have a months long silence between the consecutive months of May and June?

The title is talking about two consecutive attacks on different days:

&gt;The cargo ship was **attacked by sea drones and rocket-propelled grenades fired from manned speedboats**, maritime security firms said, and though not yet confirmed to have sunk, was reported "significantly damaged."

&gt;**The attack came the day after another Greek-owned ship, the MV Magic Seas, was attacked and sunk** in the same area by the Houthis in the maritime strait. The 22-member crew on the Magic Seas were all rescued by a passing merchant vessel.

They haven't been doing enough fucking around to to find out apparently. Maybe that needs to change.

Yemen's Houthi militants have escalated attacks on merchant shipping in the Red Sea, threatening global shipping routes and increasing transit times and costs.
