How the attack on Yemen was prepared
In mid-December 2023, the United States and its allies launched a naval security operation in the Red Sea region called Prosperity Sentinel. On January 3, the United States and 12 of its allies (UK, Australia, Bahrain, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand and Singapore) issued an official “final warning” to the Houthis to stop attacks on civilian ships in the Red Sea , threatening the Yemeni group with military action.
But on January 10, the Houthis for the first time massively fired missiles and drones at US and British naval ships that were escorting civilian ships. And on the night of January 11, the UN Security Council approved a resolution that demands an end to Houthi attacks on commercial shipping in the region.
