There is no I do that’s whybim saying there seems to be. a media coverup. www.cnn.com/…/yemen-houthi-saudi-us-blame-intl ‘A f***-up of epic proportions’: Blame game begins after Iran-backed Houthis’ lightning advance down Red Sea coast al-monitor.com/…/centcom-chief-saudi-arabia-yemen… US Navy Adm. Brad Cooper flew to the kingdom overnight Thursday as Yemen’s Riyadh-backed forces crumbled in the face of a lightning Houthi offensive Houthis took critical chokepoint out of red sea that they couldn’t do for many years and now can effectively close it just like Iran closed other one- with very little effort needed.

    yemen is at the south of the red sea, literally next to bab-el-mandeb. they control that area of the red sea, not the suez canal, which is way up north and connects with the mediterranean, egypt controls that. i haven’t read anything claiming they have complete control over the whole of the red sea, only that area where they can target boats leaving the red sea through the strait.
