🇬🇧 🇾🇪🇺🇸 Conflict Escalation in the Red Sea Chronicle of Events for January 19, 2024

Last night, the Yemeni Houthis once again attempted to attack the American tanker Chem Ranger. According to CNN, the ship was destroyed and cannot be repaired. However, the US command previously stated that the ship was undamaged.

In the evening, the American Air Force launched three strikes on the city of Al-Hodeidah. The American command stated that the target of the attack was Houthi missile launchers, which were being prepared for another launch on ships in the Red Sea region.

There were also reports of Saudi troops shelling the border village of Shada. One person was killed and three residents were injured. This incident marked the first Saudi attack since the escalation began in the region.

Meanwhile, large anti-American demonstrations took place in major cities across Yemen. Participants in the rallies marched through the city streets, expressing support for the residents of the Gaza Strip, while also accusing Israel, the United States, and Great Britain of aggression.

🇾🇪 🇺🇸 The Houthi press service has reported a prolonged battle that took place during the transition from the Gulf of Aden to the Bab El-Mandeb Strait at approximately 2:00 PM. According to Ansarallah, an American destroyer covering two cargo ships was hit during the attack.

There are currently no details or evidence available. The Americans, on the other hand, reported the attack in the afternoon, stating that two ballistic missiles were intercepted, while one landed nearby without causing any damage. Meanwhile, the container ships turned around and headed south.

It is difficult to ascertain anything for certain at this point, but a reconnaissance aircraft RC-135V took off from Al-Udeid airbase a couple of hours ago. This aircraft patrolled off the coast of Yemen during both the initial and subsequent coalition raids. Therefore, it is also possible that there will be attacks on Ansarallah tonight.

🇬🇧🇺🇸 🇾🇪 A Yemeni Houthi official, Yahya Sari, has announced a missile attack on the British tanker MARLIN LUANDA.

▪️ Monitoring resources have confirmed that an attempted attack took place, but report that two missiles missed and exploded at a distance from the ship. The incident itself occurred 60 nautical miles from the port of Aden.

▪️ In addition to the attack on the MARLIN LUANDA, as announced by Yahya Sari, the tanker belonging to the oil trader Trafigura was hit, resulting in a powerful fire.

▪️ It is believed that another target of the attack was the tanker named Achilles.

❗️At least one of the attacked ships has sunk, and footage of the fire is widely circulating online.

Regardless of the results, we should expect new attacks on Yemeni barns in the near future by the US-led coalition.

🇬🇧🇾🇪🇺🇸 Conflict Escalation in the Red Sea
Chronicle of Events for January 31-04, 2024

On the night of February 3-4, the coalition launched a new attack on several regions in Yemen that are under the control of the Ansarala movement. Despite the intensity of the attack, the group once again demonstrated its resilience against such massive raids.

The Houthis themselves continue to conduct raids on civilian ships passing through the Red Sea. For the second time since the escalation began, they utilized unmanned boats. We can expect Ansarala to use these devices more frequently, although their potential combat effectiveness against coalition ships raises doubts.

Meanwhile, thousands of people in many cities in Yemen continue to protest in support of the people of Palestine. During one of these protests, Houthi leaders attempted to urge Muslim states to adopt a tougher stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

🇮🇷 🇾🇪 🇰🇷 In anticipation of the warships from countries in the European Union arriving in the Red Sea, there are also changes happening in the composition of other naval formations.

▪️ According to Iranian sources, the destroyer Alborz completed its journey back to Iran a couple of days ago. A similar ship, the Alvand, has arrived in Yemen to replace it.

It is not clear exactly how many ships are in the detachment and who is accompanying the destroyer on this long voyage. Meanwhile, the reconnaissance vessel Bekhshad is still operating east of Djibouti.

▪️ Changes will soon take place in the composition of the Combined Maritime Forces-153 formation, which currently consists of the Japanese and South Korean destroyers Akebono and Yang Mancheon.

Less than a week ago, the destroyer Tae Jong left the South Korean port of Jeju and is expected to reach the Horn of Africa after February 20. The crew of Tae Jong will then replace their colleagues from Yang Mancheon.

🔻Despite the decrease in the intensity of Houthi strikes, operations and missions of various countries continue, and for the European Union, they are just beginning. Attention to the region has not diminished.

At the same time, the absence of Houthi strikes is most likely because many companies have either stopped using this route or have distanced themselves as much as possible from Israel, the United States, and Great Britain.

It turns out, to put it mildly, not very successful. Today, an American ship came under attack. The extent of the damage is unknown, but a retaliatory strike from the coalition will undoubtedly follow soon.

🇬🇧🇾🇪🇺🇸 Last night in the Red Sea region, the US-British coalition air force and the Houthis once again launched mutual strikes.

▪️ US and British aircraft targeted locations in the Nahdain and Attan mountains south of the capital of the Ansarallah government in Sana'a. Yemeni media also reported an attack on Al-Daylami airbase to the north.

▪️ Two more strikes occurred on agricultural land in the province of Aabs, and five in the province of Sana'a. In Taiz, strikes targeted telecommunications networks in Haifang and Mukban. A total of 22 joint US-British airstrikes.

▪️ US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said the attack was the largest military action against the Houthis in recent weeks. Support for this operation was provided by Australia, Bahrain, Canada, Denmark, the Netherlands, and New Zealand.

🔻However, the Houthis were not deterred by another major air raid: the oil tanker MV Torm Thor was attacked in Aden using anti-ship missiles. Additionally, the group’s representative, Yahya Sari, reported the launch of drones against coalition warships in the Red Sea.

Meanwhile, the US Army Central Command reported that the US Navy destroyer USS Mason had shot down an anti-ship ballistic missile launched into the Gulf of Aden from Yemen. This interception likely took place near the ship MV Torm Thor.
