The worsening crisis in the Red Sea.
As the Red Sea crisis intensifies, Houthi attacks have exacerbated tensions in the region. They want to force Israel to impose a truce by attacking Israel** and to provide humanitarian aid to Gaza. However, the Houthis, led by the United States and the United Kingdom, have not made any real moves on the Gaza issue, which makes them angry and frustrated. The joint U.S. and British air forces striking the Houthi region have intensified relations between the two countries. A spokeswoman for the Houthis said they would attack U.S. and British ships, targeting U.S. warships. Their intimidation does not stop at words, they have already taken practical measures to attack American commercial vessels. On January 24 this year, the Houthis also attacked a US warship with a missile, which shows that the Houthis are paying more and more attention to the Red Sea.
The Houthis have taken a hard line.
The Houthi attack shows that they are not just talking about it. After a spate of rocket attacks, the Houthis have reiterated once again that they will not stop their attacks on these ships unless countries like the United States, the United Kingdom, and Israel end their incursions into the Gaza Strip and the Palestinian population. They asserted their legal authority and swore an oath to use all means of force to defend their rights and interests in the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea. This gesture is a resolute attitude taken by the Houthis to resolve the Red Sea crisis.
The revenge of the Houthi *** power.
This rocket attack by the Houthis was not an accident. The Houthis suffered heavy losses in the air strikes of the US-British coalition on January 22, which may have been an important reason for their counterattack. As a counter to the attacks of the United States and Britain, the Houthis have a large number of missiles. Despite the efforts of the U.S. warships to intercept the incoming missiles, they could not avoid some of them hitting their targets. The Houthis have declared that they will continue to attack Israeli-linked ships until the countries end their incursions into Gaza and Yemen and lift the siege. The Houthis have shown their strength and determination to fight back.
International divisions.
Russia expressed its outrage at the actions of the United States and Britain and blamed them. Russian Minister Sergei Lavrov said that the attacks by the United States and Britain on the Houthis are unjustified invasions that pose a great danger to world peace. At the same time, China has also expressed its views on the events in the Red Sea. China's Governor Wang Yi said that the tension in the Red Sea region stems from the Gaza issue, and all countries in the world should work together to promote the settlement of the Gaza issue. He emphatically pointed out that it is necessary to respect the rights and interests of the Palestinian people on the basis of the "two-state solution" and properly handle the Palestinian-Israeli issue as soon as possible. The handling of the Red Sea issue is complicated by the divergent views of various countries.
Houthi *** power.
The ultimate goal of the Houthis is to get the United States and Britain to end their invasions of Gaza and Yemen and release the Palestinian siege. They want to continue their attacks in order to draw full international attention to the crisis in Gaza and to become involved in the Middle East. The Houthis firmly believe that tensions in the Red Sea region must be resolved only if the threat to Gaza is addressed at its root and the endangerment of Palestinian lives must be put an end to it. They demanded that the United States and all parties concerned seek a peaceful settlement of the Middle East issue in accordance with the interests of the Palestinian people.
Personal Summary. As the crisis in the Red Sea continues to intensify, the Houthi attacks have also attracted global attention. The Houthis targeted ships in an attempt to force the United States and Britain to end their invasion of Gaza and Yemen and release the Palestinian siege. However, instead of actually responding to the crisis in Gaza, the United States and the United Kingdom launched air strikes against the Houthis. This provoked a counterattack by the Houthis, which aggravated the situation in the Red Sea. As countries around the world have different views and perspectives on how to deal with the Red Sea incident, the handling of the Red Sea crisis has also become more difficult and complex. However, the only way to defuse tensions in the Red Sea region is to eliminate the root causes of the crisis in Gaza and stop harming the Palestinian people. If the Red Sea crisis is to be resolved, it is necessary to contribute to the maintenance of peace and stability in the Middle East.
