The U.S. side took the lead in the nine-nation joint assembly in the Red Sea, and the Houthis said that they would attack whoever they targeted

This Houthis are not easy to mess with, they have the strength and confidence. It seems that this joint assembly is not so easy!

So what is the purpose of the joint assembly of the nine countries?Do they have some ulterior motives?And how will the Houthis respond?All this raises questions.

Next, let's take a look at how this international situation will develop!

The United States took the lead in forming a maritime coalition, bringing together forces from nine countries in the Red Sea region, seemingly to stand on Israel's side.

The Houthis have taken a firm stance on this, saying that they will not hesitate to fight back against anyone who dares to target them, even if they are enemies of the whole world. What are the considerations for this movement on the Red Sea?And why did the Houthis respond so forcefully?

According to CCTV News, U.S. Secretary of Defense Austin announced on December 19 local time that the United States is forming a new multinational force aimed at protecting ships crossing the Red Sea from the threat of drone and ballistic missile attacks from Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen.

Austin noted that the "maritime coalition" includes not only the United States, but also nine countries – the United Kingdom, Bahrain, Canada, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Seychelles and Spain.

In fact, the reason why the United States has made waves in the Red Sea is because of the recent attacks on a number of cargo ships in the region, which has led to the temporary suspension of many international shipping companies in the Red Sea. The purpose of the U.S. move is to deter the attackers. And the identity of these attackers is not complicated, it is none other than the Houthis from Yemen.

According to foreign media reports, on the 19th, Abdul Salam, the chief negotiator and spokesman for Yemen's Houthi rebels, issued a statement on Twitter, accusing the United States and other countries of forming a maritime coalition, and claiming that what they claim "to protect maritime navigation in the Red Sea" is actually "for the sake of Israeli entities and Israeli ships".

Abdul Salam strongly criticized the US-led maritime coalition for violating international law and threatened to "target all ships from countries that target the group."

Abdul stressed that the original intention of the United States in forming the alliance was to encourage the Zionist entity to continue its brutal acts against the people of Gaza and to militarize the Red Sea in order to serve Israel's interests. This practice is not only a violation of international law, but also a threat to the safety of maritime navigation.

The Houthis claim that the military operation in the Red Sea is aimed at supporting the Palestinian people, not a show of force, and specifically targets Israeli ships and ships heading for Israel.

The organization stressed that anyone who tries to escalate the conflict will be held accountable for the consequences of their actions. In addition, Ali Houthi, a senior Houthi leader in Yemen, stressed in an interview that the ships of any country that acts against the Houthis could be targeted by the group.

Ali also singled out China, noting that China is not involved in the maritime coalition.

He welcomed the decision of Saudi Arabia and the UAE not to participate in the maritime coalition and called on regional countries to take more important and forceful practical positions to provide more support to Palestine.

Another senior Houthi in Yemen, Mohammed al-Buhaiti, also said that the Houthis would stop their attacks only if Israel ceases fire and allows unhindered humanitarian supplies to enter the Gaza Strip.

The recent manifestations of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict have shown that Yemen's Houthis are one of the few that have staunchly supported the Palestinians.

What is even more remarkable is that the Houthis in Yemen have taken a radical approach at a time when countries around the world have been supporting the people of Gaza and providing aid has been blocked. Although this approach is not legally recognized, it is in line with the deep national sentiment of the people of the Arab region.

The analysis pointed out that the group's reference to China is on the one hand to avoid misunderstandings among countries that advocate peace such as China, and on the other hand, it is also to compare with the behavior of the United States.

As we all know, China has been advocating for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip internationally and calling on the Palestinians and Israelis to resolve the issue through peaceful negotiations in order to reduce the number of civilians**.

On the contrary, it is neither wise nor humane for the United States to stand alone in opposing the peaceful solutions proposed by various countries in the UN Security Council.

Recently, humanitarian aid from China and other countries is arriving in the Gaza Strip. However, given that there are two million people in the region, the current vetted supplies are a drop in the bucket and far from sufficient.

This explains why Yemen's Houthi attacks on Israeli cargo ships, forcing Israel to cease fire and ensuring the unhindered flow of aid into Gaza. The United States' rally of Western countries to intervene in the Red Sea military operation will only intensify the hatred and hostility of the Arab people towards them, and the most effective way to solve the problem is to promote a ceasefire between Palestine and Israel.
