The Pentagon says US warship, commercial ships attacked in Red Sea. Houthis claim attacking 2 ships
The attack Sunday potentially marks a major escalation in a series of maritime attacks in the Mideast linked to the Israel-Hamas war.
The attack potentially marked a major escalation in a series of maritime attacks in the Mideast linked to the Israel-Hamas war as multiple vessels found themselves in the crosshairs of a single Houthi assault for the first time in the conflict.
“We’re aware of reports regarding attacks on the USS Carney and commercial vessels in the Red Sea and will provide information as it becomes available,” the Defense Department told The Associated Press.
The Carney is an Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer that’s already shot down multiple rockets the Houthis have fired toward Israel so far in the war. It wasn’t damaged in the attack and no injuries were reported on board, said a U.S. official who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss early details of a military operation.
Did nobody tell these assholes the absolutely #1 rule? You DO NOT fuck with American ships... Keep this shit up, and things are going to get real "proportional" around here...
That was fascinating!
Seems we may well be in the initial stages of WW3.
That's a great way to get an over response from the Western World. I know they don't love us after we supplied the Saudis but this is just stupid. They gain nothing and give the west an incentive.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they have been directed by Iran to do this.
