“The Houthis on Thursday sent shippers and insurers formal notice of what they termed a ban on vessels linked to Israel, the U.S. and Britain from sailing in surrounding seas, seeking to reinforce their military campaign.

The Houthis’ communication, the first to the shipping industry outlining a ban, came in the form of two notices from the Houthis’ newly dubbed Humanitarian Operations Coordination Center sent to shipping insurers and firms. The aim is to force sailing companies to collaborate with the Houthis to guarantee the safety of their ships”

Ballsy, but incredibly they are operating from a position of strength. Let’s go try to push the Chicoms around with naval power.

Just heard the World Caribbean 9 month world tour is skipping the route of the Red Sea. Probably a good idea.

A huge,inverted U cloaking ship made of a small number of mass-produced parts could be used to shield a cargo ship in transit.

When the cloaking ship gets hit just weld on a patch.
