“Operations in the Red and Arabian Seas, Bab al-Mandab Strait, and the Gulf of Aden are continuing, escalating, and effective,” Abdul Malik al-Houthi added in a televised speech. He gave no details of the submarine weapons.

Ships owned by individuals or entities in Israel, the U.S. and U.K. or sailing under their flags are banned from the Red Sea, Gulf of Aden and Arabian Sea, Thursday’s notices said.

“The Humanitarian Operations Center was established in Sanaa to coordinate the safe and peaceful passage of ships and vessels that have no connection to Israel,” a senior Houthi official told Reuters on Thursday.

No ships have been sunk nor crew killed during the Houthi campaign. However there are concerns about the fate of the UK-registered Rubymar cargo vessel, which was struck on Feb. 18 and its crew evacuated.

    Yes now don’t ask yourself the question of why the word BRITISH is in that first sentence.

    Once the Brits install a government it is not commanded by Arabs.

      someone here didn’t read.
      the ones who initiated the pogrom weren’t part of the british government. they were part of the coup government who took power from the british

      nonetheless you’re ignoring everything else i linked, like the persecution of yemenite jews.

      or the persecution and discrimination against isfahan jews in iran and how they were forced to wear badges under islamic rule. centuries before the nazis.

        You’re right I did miss some info. It was Nazis and Britis. But the Pogrom happened under the Brits.

        it’s at the ramp up of WW2 and everyone wanted to control the oil. So Baghdad got a nice amount of Nazi propaganda. And their government overthrown of course.

        The British also delayed their entry into Baghdad for 48 hours, which some testimonies suggest was due to having ulterior motives in allowing a clash to happen between Muslims and Jews in the city.[29]

        Now the 1300 one could be true I haven’t read it yet. But there I am very much noticing a theme of Europeans showing up

        Many of these “Arab” ones were very much pushed on the Arab Jews by Europe.

          rashid ali was an iraqi muslim, so was yunis al-sabawi, so were al-futuwa youth that marked jewish houses before the farhud and so were the iraqi mob and police that massacred and raped jews.
          arabs aren’t infantile human beings with no agency or responsibility.

          you wrote that these things only happened in europe. iraq isn’t europe.

          either way i gave other examples without any kind of european presence. and there are plenty more.
