USA and UK military have launched strikes against houthis rebels in Yemen, in response to the group's continued attacks on ships in Red Sea and Arabian Gulf.
Houthis in Yemen who have been waging a civil war against the nation's elected government for the past decade, and are backed by Iran, have been targeting ships they claim to have Israel connections in response and in support of Hamas in Gaza.
However, they have also been going for shipping with nothing to do with Israel, and this entire thing, is causing much anxiety in the Arabian areas.
Egypt, for example, will be losing billions in port fees, as ships stop using the Suez Canal.
That being said, neither UK or USA has done much to stop Israel in its overly aggressive war against the ordinary folks in Palestine and Gaza in response to the terror attacks of early October against Israel.
We have no idea how this will pan out, but it won't be over any time soon.
South Africa has meanwhile taken Israel to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to get it to stop indiscriminate bombing in Gaza.
Israel has a right to defend itself, true, but to take it out on absolutely everybody else in Gaza and Palestine, it doesn't have the right to do!
