Houthi Attacks On Ships Soar Most This Year In June As Critical Maritime Chokepoint Ablaze In Conflict

In the wake of increased instability in the Middle East, particularly in the southern Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, the month of June witnessed a surge in missile and drone attacks on commercial vessels by Iran-backed Houthi rebels. This spike in attacks, marking the highest number this year and the second-largest since December, has raised concerns about maritime security.

Despite the efforts of US, British, and European navies to ensure freedom of navigation in the critical maritime chokepoint, the Houthi rebels managed to carry out 16 confirmed attacks on commercial vessels in June. This has resulted in disruptions to supply chains, supply shocks, and soaring containerized shipping rates.

Sebastian Bruns, a naval expert, highlighted the Houthi rebels’ growing threat, emphasizing their ability to challenge Western coalition forces and disrupt maritime operations. The introduction of kamikaze drone boats to their arsenal has further exacerbated the situation.

With the expansion of attacks using uncrewed service vessels, tracking and neutralizing these threats have become increasingly challenging. Additionally, criminal groups have reinvigorated piracy networks off the Somalia coast, taking advantage of the heightened maritime activity in the region.

As the world grapples with escalating conflicts and geopolitical tensions, President Biden’s foreign policy decisions face scrutiny. Calls for his resignation amidst concerns about his cognitive decline add to the challenges facing the US on the international stage.
