Houthis damage True Confidence

The ship, sailing under the Barbados flag, was hit in the superstructure yesterday by an anti-ship ballistic missile after refusing to comply with the demands of the Houthis. As a result, it received a missile and a subsequent fire. Three crew members were killed, five were injured and burned.

The ship itself received significant damage. American warships were also attacked, but there are fewer specifics.

The US and Britain responded by bombing the Hodeidah area again, but as usual with near-zero results. The Houthis promised yesterday that the attacks would not only continue, but also intensify. Moreover, the Houthis are announcing an increase in the use of surface and underwater drones.

There is also still a threat of failure of other main cables running along the bottom of the Red Sea. The US and British Operation Guardian of Prosperity was a complete failure.
