Mitch McConnell: Houthi attacks against shipping are a threat to American leadership
The Republican leader in the US Senate, Mitch McConnell, confirmed that the attacks by the Iranian-backed Houthi militia against navigation represent a direct threat to the American leadership.
US Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin, confirmed that the Houthi terrorist militia's attacks on commercial ships in the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab were reckless, dangerous, and violated international law.
He said in statements today, Monday, that we are building a military coalition to confront the threats of the Houthi militia, revealing efforts to form a multinational task force to support freedom of navigation in the Red Sea.
The US Secretary of Defense warned that the Iranian regime supports Houthi terrorist attacks on commercial ships and this must be stopped.
