Photo: Houthi Military Media/Reuters Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin announced a multinational maritime security force — Operation Prosperity Guardian — to protect ships in the Red Sea from missile and drone attacks from Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen, Axios' Barak Ravid reports. "The recent escalation in reckless Houthi attacks originating from Yemen threatens the free flow of commerce, endangers innocent mariners, and violates international law," Austin said. Why it matters: The attacks in the key commercial shipping route have prompted some cargo shippers to halt transits through the Red Sea. What's happening: Since the Israel-Hamas war started, the Houthis have launched more than 70 drones and ballistic missiles toward Israel, which is more than 1,000 miles away from Yemen, the IDF said. Houthis are targeting commercial ships in the vicinity of the Bab el-Mandeb strait in the Red Sea, which they claimed were owned by Israeli companies or were heading to Israel.

Members phkrause Posted December 19, 2023 Author Members Share Posted December 19, 2023 The Pentagon announces a new international mission to counter attacks on commercial vessels in the Red Sea After the U.S. military’s Central Command reported two more of the attacks on commercial vessels on Monday, the U.S. and a host of other nations are creating a new force to protect ships transiting the Red Sea that have come under attack by drones and ballistic missiles fired from Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin announced early Tuesday. Read more. Why this matters: The seriousness of the attacks, several of which have damaged the vessels, has led multiple shipping companies to order their ships to hold in place and not enter the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. The United Kingdom, Bahrain, Canada, France, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Seychelles and Spain will join in the new mission. Some of the countries will conduct joint patrols while others provide intelligence support in the southern Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. To date the U.S. has not struck back at the Iranian-back Houthis operating in Yemen or targeted any of the militants’ weapons or sites. On Monday, Austin did not answer a question as to why the Pentagon had not conducted a counterstrike.

8thdaypriest Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Iran would like to weaken and perhaps collapse the current secular administration of Egypt. There is a large population of Shia Islamic extremists in Egypt [Muslim Brotherhood]. Cutting off shipping through the Red Sea will deprive Egypt of $30 million a day in Suez fees. Might topple the administration. The Houthi are using the Israeli conflict as a reason for their "blockade" of the Red Sea, but it's really about Iran gaining power over Egypt. phkrause 1 Quote 8thdaypriest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8thdaypriest Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Numbers 24:23-24 Again he uttered his oracle, saying: "Alas, who shall live when God does this? 24 But ships shall come from Kittim [Cyprus] and shall afflict Asshur and Eber; and he also shall perish forever." (NRS) Asshur and Eber are Syria and Iran. The angel speaking to Daniel, quotes part of the Baalim prophecy. Daniel 11:30 "For ships of Kittim shall come against him, and he shall lose heart and withdraw. He shall be enraged and take action against the holy covenant. He shall turn back and pay heed to those who forsake the holy covenant. 31 Forces sent by him shall occupy and profane the temple and fortress. They shall abolish the regular burnt offering and set up the abomination that makes desolate."(NRS) If this is a prophecy for the FINAL DAYS, then a third Temple will have to be set up on the Mount, with a priesthood and sacrifices.

Photo: U.S. Navy Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Aaron Lau via Reuters A Red Sea surveillance vessel controlled by Iran's paramilitary forces is giving tracking information to Yemen's Houthi rebels, who have used it to attack commercial vessels, The Wall Street Journal reports. Western and regional security officials tell the paper that Iran is "providing real-time intelligence and weaponry, including drones and missiles," to the rebels — who then target ships in the Red Sea. 🇺🇸 National Security Council spokeswoman Adrienne Watson said yesterday that Iranian support has enabled Houthis to launch attacks against Israel and maritime targets, though Iran has often deferred operational decision-making authority to the Houthis.

What happened: The Navy helicopters were responding to a distress call from the container ship Maersk Hangzhou after it was fired on by the rebels, who attempted to board. 🖼️ The big picture: The Houthis claim their attacks are against ships heading to and from Israel. But the rebels have attacked many other ships, and significantly hampered freedom of navigation on one of the world's most vital maritime commercial routes. 🚢 The latest: Maersk, a global shipping giant with 700+ container vessels, announced today that it's pausing all sailing through the Red Sea for 48 hours.

Members phkrause Posted January 7 Author Members Share Posted January 7 upply chain reels Data: Freightos. Chart: Axios Visuals The price of sending goods around the world is spiking after six weeks of disruptions in the Red Sea, where Iran-backed Houthi militants are attacking commercial shipping vessels, Axios' Emily Peck reports. Why it matters: The situation could mean higher prices, just as inflation is coming down, and cause shortages of goods, just as retailers have finally recovered from the roller coaster of the past few years. 🖼️ The big picture: The disruptions pose a threat to the global economy, nearly four years after COVID woke the world up to the existence — and fragility — of supply chains. 🧮 By the numbers: Spot rates for shipping goods from Asia to Northern Europe are up 173% compared to before shippers started rerouting shipments, and rates to North America's East Coast are up 52%, according to Freightos, a booking and payments platform for international freight. 🧠 State of play: About 30% of global container ship volume moves through the Suez Canal, which links the Red Sea with the Mediterranean Sea, according to the digital transformation company UST. But since the Houthi attacks got underway, shippers have been forced to reroute container vessels to avoid the area. The situation is unfolding at the same time the Panama Canal — which handles 8% of shipping volume — is at reduced capacity due to drought. Shippers were using the Red Sea as an alternative. 💡 How it works: Diverting container vessels adds lots of time to shipping. If a carrier goes around Africa's southern tip, instead of through the Suez to ship goods to New York, it adds two weeks of travel time, per UST.

Members phkrause Posted January 13 Author Members Share Posted January 13 U.S. missiles hit Houthis in Yemen A Royal Air Force Typhoon aircraft takes off from Cyprus yesterday for a mission to strike targets in Yemen. Photo: Sgt. Lee Goddard/UK Ministry of Defense via AP The U.S. and U.K. launched airstrikes against Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen after the group defied repeated warnings to halt its attacks on merchant and commercial vessels in the Red Sea, Axios' Barak Ravid writes. Two American officials said the U.S. expects the Houthis to retaliate — and said U.S. forces in the region are ready to defend themselves and launch more strikes if needed. What's happening: An American military official said at a briefing last night that the strikes were conducted by U.S. Navy warships and submarines, which launched precision-guided munitions in order to hit specific targets and avoid civilian casualties. A spokesperson for the Houthi rebels said the airstrikes hit the Yemeni city of Hodeidah. The backstory: President Biden said in a statement that the strikes were in direct response to the "unprecedented Houthi attacks against international shipping vessels in the Red Sea — including the use of anti-ship ballistic missiles for the first time in history." The Houthis have launched more than two dozen attacks on vessels in the Red Sea since November, severely hampering freedom of navigation in one of the world's main commercial shipping routes. This photo, taken Wednesday from the bridge of HMS Diamond, shows Sea Viper missiles being fired in the Red Sea. Photo: UK Ministry of Defence via AP Between the lines: Biden had been considering taking military action against the Houthis for weeks. But he was hesitant because of concerns it could drag the U.S. further into the crisis militarily. Instead, the administration focused on building an international coalition of countries and a multinational naval task force, Operation Prosperity Guardian, aimed at deterring the rebel group. But the Houthis continued their attacks, including on Tuesday when they launched their largest drone and missile attack so far, as commercial ships were passing through the Red Sea.

US to relist Yemen’s Houthis as specially designated global terrorists, AP sources say The Biden administration is expected to soon announce plans to redesignate Iranian-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen as specially designated global terrorists, according to two people familiar with the White House decision and a U.S. official. Read more. Why this matters: Yemen is the poorest country in the Arab world and about two-thirds of Yemenis live in territory controlled by the Houthis. The foreign terrorist designation bars the U.S. from providing “material support” to the Houthis. This will make it harder to get food imports and humanitarian aid into Yemen. While supporters of broad sanctions argue it’s possible to shape enforcement mechanisms to exempt food and humanitarian aid, aid organizations worry that fears of running afoul of U.S. regulation could scare away shippers, banks and players vital to Yemen’s commercial food supply.

Members phkrause Posted January 21 Author Members Share Posted January 21 A drop in Panama Canal traffic due to a severe drought could cost up to $700 million A severe drought that began last year has forced authorities to slash ship crossings by 36% in the Panama Canal, one of the world’s most important trade routes. The new cuts announced Wednesday by authorities in Panama are set to deal an even greater economic blow than previously expected. Read more. Why this matters: The disruption of the major trade route between Asia and the United States comes at a precarious time. Attacks on commercial ships in the Red Sea by Yemen’s Houthi rebels have rerouted vessels away from the crucial corridor, and the combination is having far-reaching effects on global trade by delaying shipments and raising transport costs. Canal authorities attributed the drought to the El Niño weather phenomenon and climate change, warning that it was urgent for Panama to seek new water sources — both for the canal and for human consumption. The same lakes that fill the canal also provide water for more than 50% of the country.

Members phkrause Posted January 29 Author Members Share Posted January 29 🇺🇸 Biden hit from all sides on Middle East strikes President Biden is facing rare simultaneous criticism from interventionists and isolationists in Congress over his recent strikes against Houthi rebels in Yemen and other militia groups in the Middle East, Axios' Andrew Solender reports. Why it matters: Dovish lawmakers on the ideological ends of both parties argue the president lacks the authority to unilaterally carry out the strikes — while, conversely, foreign policy hawks say he isn't going far enough. An administration official told Axios the Biden team is "confident, after consultation with the Justice Department and interagency lawyers, that U.S. actions against Houthi targets are consistent with international and domestic law." Driving the news: A group of 14 House Democrats and eight House Republicans signed onto a letter to Biden on Friday raising "serious concerns" about what they labeled "unauthorized" strikes against the Houthis. That follows a similar letter from Sens. Tim Kaine (D-Va.), Todd Young (R-Ind.), Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) and Mike Lee (R-Utah) last week. "What is your administration's understanding of 'self-defense' in the context of these strikes?" they asked, pointing to Biden's admission that the strikes have not deterred the Houthis. The intrigue: It's no longer just foreign policy doves raising objections to the Biden administration's recent actions in the Middle East. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), one of Congress' preeminent defense hawks, said in a floor speech on Thursday that rather than overstepping his authority, Biden is "failing to sufficiently exercise the authority he has." "He's played whack-a-mole against warehouses and launch sites but left the terrorists' air defenses and command-and-control facilities intact," the GOP leader said.
