We already face a blockade the houties aren’t exactly discriminating
Comment on UK to give military support to Saudi Arabia in fight against Houthis
geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 1 day agoUK gotta make themselves complicit, then face a Houthi blockade on the Red Sea shipping and then yell victim and start bombing Yemen. Maybe they can pull in more European countries who konws.

The current blockade is only on Saudi ships. Ansarallah specifically stated that if others help Saudi they will also get shipping blocks. Burnham is risking the UK economy to help the Saudi regime.

and the UK does use Saudi owned ships to import and deliver oil and gas. So yes its a already a direct affect on us.

Here’s an idea: don’t use Saudi flagged and owned ships.

Mate do you know what the Red Sea is? A lot more than Saudi Arabia goes through there.

The previous blockade was “only” on Israeli ships or ships visiting Israel. Except the Houthis evidently got bored and started firing on other ships too.
