Houthi attacks on tankers passing through the narrow strait of Bab Al Mandab that connects the Gulf of Aden to the Red Sea, have disrupted one of the busiest shipping lanes in the world.
Houthis say they are targeting vessels linked to Israel in a show of solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza. But countries in the region are worried the escalation is disrupting business and could drag them into a wider conflict.

YEMANI HOUTHIS AUR MALAYSIA 🇲🇾IRAN ZINDABAD 💪ALLAH AAP LOG KE MADAAD FERMA
Proud to be Yamani houthi ❤
Houthis will now go for the port that the ships are refueling😂. West is really wicked thinking people are still slaves 100 years later.
Palestinian have no water, food and electricy and people are afraid that their business are disrupted.
The real problem in the region is Israel stealing land attacking neighbouring countries and destabilising countries. Jews can live where they like but Israel and Zionism existence is a problem to peace.
Money, money, money…
Yemen 🇾🇪 Israel should have test the same blockade
Allahuakbar
You diaper heads are in for a rude awakening
It’s sort of hard for these people,but much harder for people in Gaza. Maybe if these leaders supported Gaza better this wouldn’t be happening. Think world leaders have allowed Israel to break international law and act outside rules of just common decency and fairness for so long the situation has festered and this is what happens. And the injustice just keeps going….how is it helping make things better??
This is how sanctions work
Djibouti seems like a corrupt nation
How can you be such an important hub and your people are still poor?
❤
It ant business as usual huh someone’s gonna get us that cease fire one way or another
❤️❤️❤️🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇧🇩
Lies
As Djiboutian🇩🇯 the Houthi attacks had impact in economy because our economy is based on the transshipment and port
Houthi should allow ships to go to East African countries of Eritrea, Djibouti, Somalia and Kenya.
Houthi’s demand what 153 country want.
Problem would be solved if the US formed a multi national taskforce to stop Israel.. Instead they help them. Im sorry for your financial loss East African countries… but no one wants genocide… Just ask the Somali refugee camps.
Shame on you puppet Zionist Muslim leaders and countries.
Yemen are using sanctions, last time I checked the US loved sanctions, what’s the problem?
Western Conspiracy!!!! I know the Houtis very well & they’re just a bunch of ragtag small time militia group. They’re not capable of such sophisticated attacks. USA/Israel is doing this to choke the global supply chain & divert it elsewhere.
Yemen is a blessed country❤❤
Blessed by what!!!?🤔
huti as alrigth to protect the middle eastfrom USA and ID-F colonialismuss.
Muslim countries such as Egypt, Djibouti, Somalia, Sudan and Eritrea are also suffering due to the Houthi actions.
And these very countries are complicit in crime against Palestinians. These countries are friends with Israel.
What a load of rubbish.
🇾🇪❤️❤️❤️
The only affected ones are the rich and powerful nepo family in power. The people of djibouti won’t feel the difference anyway we were already poor and never seen the benefits of these ports anyway. Only the corrupted government will feel the impact. Free palestine from the river to the sea
israel thought they have control over saudia, egypt, pakistan and many others so no one is gonna stand for palestine. they forgot yemen is still breathing. masha’Allah.
Yemen has the right to defend themselves.
Blame US not houthis
Yemen has a right to defend itself and Palestine, Alhamdulillah.
I stand with Palestine free free Palestine Israel is a terrest I am from India Kashmir
Its absolutely rubbish to halt operation of the whole world cargo due to any regional conflicts. Come on you cant be that selfish to destroy world economy that was just recovering after Covid. This is purely due to lack of corrective response from USA and its allies especially UNO.
Alhamdulillah
Good on you Yemen.
Djibouti is rubbing hands getting money from France USA China they are well protected
GCC& islamic Organisation boycott Baharain
Houthis should also operate in persian Gulf
Imagine risking WARS thruout the region and all over , cos ya want .to protect an APARTHEID STATE imports, so its citizens hv Value for monies stuff.
The root cause is ISREAL … and how USA has repeatedly VETO UN resolution.
Well looks like Yemen wants War by attacking global shipping routes !!!
Cheers to the Yemeni Houthis who support the freedom of the Palestinian state, not Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt, Bahrain who are cowards, shame on you with the Prophet Muhammad..
👌

Lmao , it’s not okay when other countries do sanctions. But everyone clapping when brandon do it. 😂 It’s their country , don’t use their sea territory if you don’t like it.

Western hypocrisy……..
URNWA is ran by Hamas. All the donations are being routed to terror tunnels. The UN must stop this.
So they’re in the FA stage of FAFO. Let’s see how they FO in a few days.
You care about your ships and genocide is ongoing surely how do people think thos ships are nothing compared to beautiful lives of small kidss
Am a Christian and believed in Israel as God’s chosen people. Bt what they are doing to the Palestinians has made me rethink twice my support for Israel..All Arab nations should offer support for the palestinians
Out of curiosity can I ask if you do believe Jewish folk to be ‘the Chosen’ why have you not converted to their religion? Why would you choose to remain Christian? I’m honestly not being disrespectful, I just don’t understand why a Christian wouldn’t believe themselves to be the chosen ones, a Muslim them, a Buddhist them, a Hindu them and so on…? Also while there are many good Jews around the world including also a minority in Israel, this war they have unleashed is not religious, they are individuals who will have to pay for their crimes if not in this world then the next.
The fact that you though Israel was God’s chosen people speaks volume about your inferior intelligence. Are you american?
🔥🔥🔥🔥
If they cut water food this is how our fighters cut your supplies
Йеминь Фалестина и Иран, Ирак, Сирия Вы наша Гордость 💪
Happy Wednesday safety first peace on earth

Soon they will start crying for ceasefire and humanitarian aid. Now they are smart in attacking but soon, they will be attacked
Please get it right not all somali ports use the Red Sea we also use the Indian Ocean. We support our Yemeni and Palestinian brothers and sisters free Palestine 🇵🇸
How can Israel sustain its unity after October 7? Since the October 7 attack, we are not expressing hatred toward each other because our pain is much greater. But we are not far from how things were before October 7. We could return to that previous state in a matter of days.
It is also important to note that our divisiveness throughout the year weakened us and strengthened those who wished to attack us. A captured Hamas terrorist who participated in the October 7 attacks stated how the ongoing protests and demonstrations in Israel encouraged Hamas during their preparations for the attack.
When outside influences that pressure the formation of our unity move away, internal feelings of hatred resurface. We might believe that coming closer during tough times lets us develop while maintaining that closeness. However, this idea is incorrect.
We need to undergo a reset and rebuild our unity from scratch, without external pressure dictating our actions but out of our own choice to live in a common connection to each other, with a spirit of unity, support, care, encouragement and closeness dwelling in our relations.
When we are in a conflict of opinions, we need to equally respect those who we are against, acknowledging that they might also be right and have their own opinions, and that their opinions represent other people and citizens. Thus, we indeed should take heed to treat each other with more kindness.
Unity means that we are ready to set aside our own opinions in order to unite with others.
Here you are. The usual religious fanatics and terrorists who think they are the masters of the world.
👏
Yemenis are God Chosen people and Babul Mandab strait is promised strait mentioned in Yemenis pre- historic book
🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩. আরাম আয়েশ সুখের দিন, সারা জীবন থাকে না। সব একদিন শেষ হয় কবরে মাটি চাপা দিলে তখন কি হবে? কি কি জবাব দিতে হবে আল্লাহ কাছে? আজ হয়ত ফিলিস্তিনি মানুষ ঈমানের ও ইসলামের জন্য শহীদ হচ্ছে ঠিক কিন্তু জিহাদ লাভের ফলে জান্নাতও পেতে পারে তা আল্লাহ ভাল জানে। শয়তান বেশি নামাজ পড়েছে কিন্তু কিন্তু তার ইবাদত আল্লাহ ছুঁড়ে মারছে কোন কাজে আসেনি তাকে শয়তান বানিয়ে দিল। তাই ফিলিস্তিনি বেসামরিক ইমানদার নিরীহ মানুষকে রক্ষা আল্লাহ নিজে করবে। নমরুদ, ফেরাউন, আবরাহামদ এর পরিণতি থেকে সব মানুষকে শিক্ষা নেওয়া উচিত। মানুষের জীবন ক্ষণস্থায়ী আল্লাহর আজাব কোভিড-১৯ এর কথা সবাই মনে রেখে। আল্লাহ মানুষকে অতি তুচ্ছ জিনিস দিয়ে হত্যা করে। তাই আল্লাহকে ভয় কর।
Don’t teach west what they have to do. They are still being polite. Otherwise, it takes one day to make whole Yemen like a desert.
No impact in stock market 🎉

I’m sure the Saudi’s wouldn’t agree with your support for the Houthi’s.
❤❤❤
All countries in Africa are good talkers, like their women in their kitchens.
Go America go for it. Djibouti economy don’t relay on enything, they get the payroll from France. Djibouti is not a free country, but on the other side they choose to be a occupied country by France as long the payroll from France is flowing. Poor afari, they are technically FALASHA of the Somaliland.
U.n has not imposed any trade sanction on israel … Is israel its father , why u.n impose all sanctions and bans on Muslim countries… America shetan murda bad
👏👏👏🙏🇵🇸❤️🙏🇵🇸❤️👏👏👏
Though if the Houthi Rebels supported by the Iranian Regime, threats and attacks actually on US Navy warships or Allied Naval Vessels involved Operation Prosperity Guardian, now taking place in Red Sea and Gulf of Aden plus Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean.
Turned into a US Navy warships or Allied Naval Vessels involved Operation Prosperity Guardian, were too be badly damaged with major lost of life and injuries to the crew onboard, or worst destroyed and sunk with many of the crew lost too.
Then Operation Prosperity Guardian, could very quickly turn from only being defensive operations to protect international commercial shipping, into an offensive operation against the Houthis in Yemen!
With the American’s and her Allies then launching their Cruise Missile attacks and supported air attacks by fighters and bombers on the Houthis drones and missile bases, military camps, weapon storage facilities, even on airports and ports in Yemen where Iranian deliver weapons to the Houthis in Yemen too.
As a American and Joint Allies response, to on-going Houthis attacks in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden plus Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean.
If this first Offensive Response was not a good enough warning, to the Youthis and it’s Iranian backers and supporters, to stop attacking international Commercial Shipping.
Could we then see the American’s and her Allies actually launching Cruise Missile attacks and supported air attacks by fighters and bombers on Iranian arms manufacturing plants in Iran itself?
Or openly attacking Iranian military and air force bases, or naval ports or Iranian warships all being targets, actually in Iran and the Persian Gulf or in the Red Sea, Gulf of Aden, the Arabian Sea and in the Indian Ocean too?
Serang terus kapal kapal israel dan sekutu nya 💪💪💪💪💪💪🇾🇪🇾🇪🇾🇪🇾🇪🇾🇪🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
Now fast stop war in gaza
Antisemitism was considered evil by good people but now it is ironically evil racists who think it is evil.
❤🇵🇸💪💯
Yémen
Trouble waters
But why are you not telling the world that houthi terrorists are attacking ships that have nothing to do with Israel? They are stopping all shipping from safe transit in direct violation of international law.
Call them terrorists because that is what they are.
Just like the palestine terrorists that attacked civilians and now want to cry victim.
Are my posts being censored again?
🌹🇯🇴✊ open badi
declare war and attack navies.. not unarmed cargo ships. that’s cowardice. why kill innocent people. a business link with Israel does not means you kill and drown numerous non israeli people unlinked with your war. Its ridiculous. Hardly anyj israeli work in cargo ships, they are mostly south and south east asians
What a propaganda. Said all other ports are closed. I feel pity for Djiboutians just deal with your dictatorship and corrupt old guy who was sitting more than 20yrs
Another great example of stupidity from idiots of the country.
