Search for survivors after Yemen Houthis sink second Red Sea cargo ship in a week
At least three of the 25 people on board the Eternity C were killed after it was attacked by the Iran-backed group.
The number of people in this thread defending this shitstain terrorist organization is unreal.
You do realize you can be anti-Israel without supporting literal terrorists?
That's a good idea, let's oppose Israel but also oppose all the forces that are actually fighting it because they are scary Muslims who use violence which is a no-no. We should instead write a stern letter that genocide is bad but we will not do anything effective to stop it. That should work!
Can we all just agree that attacking and killing civilians is bad, regardless of who is doing it? I wouldn't expect that to be too much.
Tbh, killing military personnel isn't exactly "good" either if the destroying equipment, vehicles, and structures is enough to achieve military objectives.
Parent company of the ship had other ships which delivered to Israeli ports. Sad that they used human shields for their complicity in genocide.
Wait so the targeted ship wasn't even going to Israel? Wasn't that the whole point of the blockade, not just attacking anyone vaguely related to Israel?
Ships related to Israel. The parent company very directly violated the blockade so they have become a target.
Our dumb, violent, primate species fucking deserves the apocalypse we're crafting in laboratories as we speak.
A military enforced trade blockade is too much for some people to handle who think battling a state responsible for genocide can be done without violence... which is exactly what a military specializes in.
Of course now that the US has gone home, no one is there to intercept all the antiship missiles, so any vessel aiming for Israel should really take the alternative route.
I was told that the massive and exorbitantly expensive air strikes solved this problem.
Well they're clearly asking for some more
after a decade of the US helping Saudis turn Yemen into a parking lot, they can strike Israel and control the red sea.
makes me wonder what they fuck where they bombing that Yemen can still fight?
Man, just imagine doing your job, living at the other side of the world, spending months on sea to bring back some money for your family, and then some cunts just kill you because of a conflict you might not even know exists
I would be nice if people broadly opposed bombing ANYONE but even here, a site that appeals largely to self-proclaimed leftists and progressives like this is just oozing with as much bloodlust as you would see from the worst people we condemn.
This bloodlust for the deaths of others is why we have a genocide raging to begin with. Why can't we all be better and be consistent.
Lol don't bother. Each time I say something similar (ie. everyone should calm the f down), I get downvoted into oblivion. What's even more ironic is that I got downvoted for saying we don't need another genocide.
"A conflict you might not even know exists" see that's just bullshit. Not only is Israel's genocide reported heavily across the globe, if you run a shipping company, it is your responsibility to at least be somewhat aware of the regional conflicts in the area you transport goods to and from. Also, if there's a military blockade threatening all vessels who enter a port, it is also your responsibility to not put your employees in danger by trying to bypass that blockade with no assurances of safety. I would hold the owners of this vessel/company accountable for prioritizing profit and getting these people killed.
Man, imagine watching a live steamed genocide for two years and when a few people get hurt because they're working on a ship that supports the genocide, that's when you feel empathy.
Sailoring has always been a dangerous job. The past 50 years os the exemption, not the rule.
Wait, the Signal chat told me that this was solved for evar...
End the genocide
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Sea_crisis
The Houthis say that any Israel-linked ship is a target,[90][87][88] including US and UK warships, but they have also attacked the ships of many nations with no connection to Israel.[91][92] From October 2023 to March 2024, the Houthis attacked more than 60 vessels in the Red Sea.
They didn't attack before 7 of october and didn't attack during the ceasefire. End the genocide
From this BBC article: "It is the second vessel the Houthis have sunk in a week, after the group on Sunday launched missiles and drones at another Liberian-flagged, Greek-operated cargo ship, Magic Seas, which they claimed "belong[ed] to a company that violated the entry ban to the ports of occupied Palestine".....The group has said it is acting in support of the Palestinians in the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, and have claimed - often falsely - that they are targeting ships only linked to Israel".
From The Times of Israel: "Both the Eternity C and Magic Seas were part of commercial fleets whose sister vessels have made calls to Israeli ports over the past year."
The time of israel lol
