Yemen's armed forces have escalated their attacks in the Red Sea, targeting the ship "Charysalis" with missiles and drones. These strikes are part of Yemen's retaliation against Israel's actions in Gaza and support for Palestinians. Yemen vows to continue such operations until the Gaza siege ends. The attacks have significantly disrupted global shipping, forcing vessels to reroute around Africa. Meanwhile, large-scale demonstrations in Yemen show public support for Gaza.

Reports suggest Russia plans to arm Yemen's Houthi rebels with advanced anti-ship ballistic cruise missiles, potentially shifting Middle East power dynamics. This move could threaten Western interests, especially commercial shipping in the Red Sea. The Houthis, aligned with Iran, have increased attacks on vessels recently. Russia's closer ties with Iran and anti-Western alliances drive this cooperation. U.S. officials worry about escalating conflicts, particularly between Israel and Hezbollah, potentially deepening Iran-Russia military collaboration.
