- Iran is helping the Houthis try to secure Russian anti-ship missiles, Reuters reported.
- These could improve their attacks on ships in the Red Sea and threaten US warships, an expert said.
- Two officials said Houthis met Russians twice in Tehran this year, and more meetings are coming.
Iran is helping the Houthi rebels try to secure Russian anti-ship missiles, Reuters reported, citing three Western and regional sources.
Two regional officials aware of the talks said the Houthis and Russians have met at least twice this year in Tehran, where discussions to supply the missiles were underway.
They added that more meetings are expected in the coming weeks.
What does attacking cargo ships, flagged from Barbados, crewed by Filipinos, owned in Liberia, operated out of Greece, originating from China, and destined to Jeddah and Aqaba have to do with Israel?
‘Owned in Liberia’
I like how you stuck that in the middle. Just trying to sneak it in a bunch of other stuff that is unquestionable.
You know that that isn’t clever, right?
It’s obvious what you are doing, and why.
I guess I shouldn’t expect better from someone using the racist term ‘Houthis’ for the government of Yemen.
What’s wrong with owning a ship in Liberia?
Gave an example where the Houthis attacked and killed people on a ship that had nothing to do with Israel.
When you cry racism about every thing is loses meaning.
Do you think most ships ‘Owned in Liberia’ are owned by Liberian citizens?
Who owned the ship? Don’t insult my intelligence and say Liberia.
This isn’t everything. It’s an intentional racist term intended to delegitimize a government by equating it with a select group of people. There. You learned something today.
Or should I start calling every Israeli a Netanyahu, every American a Kennedy, and every British person a Starmer?
‘The Kennedy’s seized another oil tanker on international waters today claiming it contained Iranian oil’
Does that seem like an okay headline to you?
EDIT: Maybe you’d like being called a Kennedy. Maybe Bushie would be a better example for you.
I don’t need to insult your intelligence you’re more than capable. The ship was not owned by an Israeli or American company.
A group named after its founder is racists?
You can call it what ever you want, I’m not so hypersensitive that I cry racism about every little thing.
Are they carrying goods destined for Israel?
As in goods going to Jeddah would ultimately get shipped to Iseral? I have no idea if Saudi Arabia is being used as a pass through.
It is at least from the UAE passing through Saudi Arabia and Jordan.

Given that these news are half a year old and Saudis don’t like to talk about it, but do the business, it is very much possible that goods go from Jeddah to Israel too.
