Brussels wants to launch a bespoke EU mission to protect commercial vessels in the Red Sea from attacks by Iran-backed Houthi rebels.

In a document dated January 10 and seen by Euronews, the EU’s diplomatic service proposes sending “at least three” warships with “multi mission capabilities” to the region as early as next month.

The document recommends the “fast-tracking implementation” of an operation mandated to act “from the Red Sea to the Gulf,” in order to protect maritime security in a region plagued by instability in recent weeks.

    Why does everyone support Hamas in this? If Hama hadn’t kidnapped civilians we would not be here. But no everyone only blames Isreal.

    sure Isreal should have done things differently, their response should have been better. However the options here are to support Isreal, or Support Hamas. There is no neutral as neural serves one side.

      They don’t.

      That’s ridiculous.
