(from Russian military blogger): Escalation of the Conflict in the Red Sea
Chronicle of Events for January 24-27, 2024
The Yemeni Houthis once again attacked naval coalition ships and civilian vessels, claiming it as an "act of retaliation." On January 26, the supertanker Marlin Luanda was attacked. The missile hit caused the oil to catch fire.
In response, the coalition launched a retaliatory strike against a suspected launch site near the seaport of Ras Issa in the Hodeidah province. The Indian and French flotillas, despite their proximity to the operation, are currently focused on ensuring the safety of navigation.
Meanwhile, daily demonstrations in support of Hamas continue in Yemen itself. Members of the Ansarallah movement are planning an operation to block the Suez Canal, Bab El-Mandeb, and Hormuz Straits, which could potentially cause damage not only to neighboring states but also to the global economy as a whole.
