  • New Attacks by the Coalition and the Houthis in the Red Sea Region

    Following the attempted attack on the American destroyer Gravely, Yemen's Houthis from the Ansarallah movement launched new attacks on civilian ships heading towards the Suez Canal.

    The Liberian- flagged container ship KOI (COLE), which was en route to the Israeli port of Eilat, was attacked with an anti-ship missile. The ship was chartered by the British firm Oceanix Services, the same company that previously chartered the supertanker Marlin Luanda, which the Houthis hit on January 26.

    Another attack occurred approximately 57 nautical miles from Al-Hodeidah: according to the UK Department of Maritime Trade Operations, an explosion took place some distance off the starboard side of an unidentified ship. Fortunately, the crew was not injured.

    Last night, US Air Force F/A-18 carrier-based fighters attacked the group's targets in the vicinity of the city of Al - Hodeidah. Local media reported a series of powerful explosions in the area. Later, the US Central Command confirmed that they had successfully targeted the drone control station.

  • At least six Houthis killed in purported US-UK Sunday strike on Yemen's Hodeidah Province

    At least six members of the rebel Houthi movement Ansar Allah were killed on Sunday in a strike on Yemen's Red Sea coastal province of Hodeidah, which was attributed to combined US-UK forces, the Sky News Arabia TV channel reported, citing sources.

    In addition, two advisers to the Lebanon-based Shiite party Hezbollah, which together with Iran provides military and technical support to the Houthis within Yemeni territory, fell victim to a strike on an Ansar Allah facility in Hodeidah.

    Earlier, Sky News Arabia reported that one of Ansar Allah's facilities located in northern Hodeidah Province came under attack. The Houthi-owned Al Masirah TV channel claimed that the strike was carried out by US and British warplanes. However, a Pentagon official told TASS that the US-led international coalition did not carry out any strikes on Yemeni territory on Sunday.

  • Massive strike on Yemen - how did the coalition operation go?

    During the night, the United States-led coalition forces launched an attack on Ansarallah targets in Yemen. The preparations for the operation began a day earlier, coinciding with the release of the first media reports about a similar scenario.

    The naval group positioned itself in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. Interestingly, the Iranian warship detachment, seemingly aware of the impending attack, withdrew from the Red Sea.

    An hour before the raid, an RC-135 reconnaissance aircraft took off from Al-Udeid airbase. Additionally, an R-8A anti-submarine aircraft took off from Sheikh Isa. Prior to these actions, satellites had been actively capturing footage of Houthi positions for a week.

    At half past three in the morning, US Air Force F-16s, along with F/A-18s from an aircraft carrier and British Typhoon fighters, launched an attack on the port and airfield of Al-Hodeidah.

    Following that, U.S. destroyers fired Tomahawk cruise missiles at military and civilian airports, as well as two military bases.

    The targets of the attack were UAV assembly points and positional areas. In total, over 100 missiles were launched. However, there is no reliable information available yet regarding the extent of the destruction caused.

    This attack brings to mind the events of 2015, when Yemen was also subjected to bombings. However, the coalition failed to achieve their desired outcome back then. It is important to note that we should not expect anything extraordinary this time either.

    Except for Oman, the Arab monarchies provided their airspace for the attack on Yemen. The Houthis might use this as a justification to retaliate against Saudi Arabia or the UAE.

    The French have not yet participated in the operation (despite having an aviation group in Djibouti and Eritrea). However, with the escalation of the situation, they have transferred an additional 16 Mirages there. It is expected that the French will eventually join the attacks on Yemen (the frigate Languedoc has been involved in the protection of shipping for quite some time now).
