Yesterday's biggest military news should have been the departure of the US aircraft carrier group from the Persian and Gulf of Oman under the escort of the Iranian Navy, in addition, Maersk announced the suspension of sailings on the Red Sea route under the attack of the Houthis.
And the troubles in the Red Sea are spreading, and the Houthis continue to attack and detain fleets that do not comply with orders, and in one day, they attacked at least four ships in the area.
Yesterday, the British maritime authorities issued multiple warnings again, saying that a number of ships had been attacked and one had been hijacked.
Yemenis reportedly seized the Bulgarian ship Reun off the coast of Yemen.
The Houthis also attacked two ships with drones, one of which was flying the Liberian flag (belonging to Germany), which caught fire after it was hit in defiance of all warnings from Yemen.
Maersk Line will then suspend all container traffic through the Red Sea until further notice.
Mentioned in the statement:
Following yesterday's near-miss incident in Maersk Gibraltar and today's second attack on container ships, we have instructed all Maersk vessels in the region heading to the Bab el-Mandeb Strait to suspend sailing until further notice. ”
The United States is pressing for more countries to send its **. Because it cannot deal with the Houthis alone.
According to the IRIB military newsletter: The American aircraft carrier USS Eisenhower left the Persian Gulf and the Sea of Oman after 19 days of continuous activity in the Persian Gulf under constant surveillance by Iran (Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Army).
This was after ** with great fanfare about its arrival, and now the formation has quietly left the Persian Gulf at 2 a.m. and passed through the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran released drones** showing how they are trying to drive American aircraft carriers out of the Persian Gulf.
The main threat is not the IRGC Navy patrol boats in **, but anti-ship coastal missile systems, torpedo and missile carriers, and UAVs.
The U.S. aircraft carrier, escorted by Iranian patrol boats at a visual distance, accepted Iranian command to make a forced landing and declared itself innocent to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
However, this may not be a good signal, and it may well mean that the war is about to expand, because the US aircraft carrier in the Persian Gulf is not actually a deterrent to Iran, but a hostage.
If it leaves the Persian Gulf, then Iran's military power will not be able to reach the U.S. fleet, but the U.S. fleet's air and sea forces can still reach Iran, the Houthis, Lebanon and other military targets.
So, where exactly is the situation going, and will the US-Israel coalition launch an offensive against the Houthi-Allah?
