In what they claim to be acts of protest against #Israel’s offensive in #Gaza, the #Houthis have launched #missiles & #drones at many #ships transiting the #RedSea & the #GulfOfAden through one of the world’s busiest #shipping lanes, disrupting #global #trade. The #UnitedStates & #Britain have responded w/ #airstrikes on #Houthi targets, but the attacks have continued.
