US Warship And Commercial Cargo Ships Came Under Attack In Red Sea - Pentagon

The Pentagon reported that the Houthis attacked several commercial cargo ships and a US warship in the Red Sea.

According to the report, on December 3, Ansar Allah launched strikes on several cargo ships sailing under the flags of Great Britain and the Bahamas, as well as a US Navy destroyer, which reportedly intercepted one UAV.

We are aware of the attacks on the destroyer USS Carney and commercial vessels in the Red Sea and will provide information as it becomes available, the report says.

According to the US, the attack was carried out by Ansar Allah, but they were allegedly organized by Iran. The US department promised to consider a “suitable response” in coordination with the allies.

According to unofficial reports, Ansar Allah militants attacked the Unity Explorer bulk carrier and the Number Nine vessel. The first was reportedly targeted by an anti-ship missile, the second vessel was attacked by a kamikaze drone, probably Shahed-131/136. The ships were reportedly hit after the crews ignored warnings.

Al-Arabiya and Al-Hadath TV confirmed the attack on the ships. The incident reportedly took place in the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. Any damage is yet to be revealed.

The US military concluded that these attacks indicate a serious danger to navigation in the Red Sea amid the new round of escalation of war between Israel and Hamas.

Back in November, the Houthis promised to attack all ships belonging to Israel or somehow connected with the Jewish state in the Red Sea in response to the destruction of the Gaza Strip.

Another recent attack in the Red Sea targeted British cargo ship with rocket fire. LINK

The Houthis halted operations after a temporary ceasefire in Gaza entered into effect on November 24. A week later, they warned Israel that they will renew missile and drone attacks if the ceasefire was not extended. The warning was ignored and the ceasefire ended on December 1.

Psionists slaves of America

the treasonous, israel-first, aipac slaves in the us government & in the us military have been directly attacked with ballistic missiles, drones, loitering munitions, antiship missiles & even had a us drone shot down by the houthis, yet they aren’t responding to those attacks for fear of getting bogged down in yemen. they prefer to get even more bogged down in lebanon, syria & iran as ordered by their war criminal israel masters. the persian landbridge must be closed at any cost

braindead pentacon morons and their rusty tubs full of tranny canon fodder for their zionazi masters in occupied palestine are oh so 1950’s. a couple of fat hyper-sonic ceeegars in the right spot and all that scrap becomes wonderful fishy hotels where ever they sink. this is the end of the anglozionazi empire of filth all because of the psychopathic thug, nut’nyahoo and the stinking chosenite albatross in occupied palestine.

netty’s paternal grandfather, nathan miliekowsky was a rabbi and zionist writer. when netty’s grandfather emigrated to isreal he changed his surname to netanyahu, meaning god has given. god gave alright, through the sphincter most likely.

the usadmin thinks that the houthis are not capable of doing anything under their own steam. the usadmin keep saying that everything that happens in persia is the fault of iran. in any case, what does the failing empire expect if they are to bob about in the sea like a sitting duck? let’s hope all the sailors aboard have studied their history of us false flags.
