CENTCOM called the action self-defense. “The action made international waters safer and protected the right to freedom of navigation,” CENTCOM said.
Operations against the Houthis continue as the first joint US-British attack on January 11 failed to stop the Houthis from continuing to attack ships in the Red Sea. This Monday the British and Americans attacked together again.
Six places were hit, and for the first time a warehouse that was located at a great depth was hit. CENTCOM said it was chosen because it “contained much more advanced conventional weapons” than those in the warehouses attacked in January, Defense One reported.
The operation against the Houthis has already been named, CNN reported, citing two American officials. According to them, it is called “Operation Poseidon’s Archer.”
