US warship, multiple commercial vessels reportedly attacked in Red Sea

[1LoverofGod]

A U.S. warship and multiple commercial vessels were reportedly under attack in the Red Sea on Sunday.

The development could signify a serious escalation in a series of maritime attacks in the Middle East linked to the Israel-Hamas war.

"We’re aware of reports regarding attacks on the USS Carney and commercial vessels in the Red Sea and will provide information as it becomes available, later," a Pentagon spokesman told Fox News, after the Associated Press reported on an attack on a U.S. warship in the Red Sea.

USS Carney is an Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer that has been shooting down drones and cruise missiles in recent weeks launched by Iran-backed Houthi rebels, who claimed credit for Sunday's attack. An update is expected soon from the United States Central Command (CENTCOM).

Conflicting reports have said the US ship was not directly fired upon, but did defend commercial vehicles that were targeted.

Well, this would be an escalation. I’m half-expecting something like this, to be honest.

What's interesting is The WH keeps telling Israel not to be bombing in Southern Gaza "because of civilians " that fled from Northern Gaza there.

Yet US just gave IDF bombs
The WH is a "funny farm" ....

U.S. Sends Israel 2,000-Pound Bunker Buster Bombs for Gaza War​

"After sending massive bombs, artillery shells, U.S. also urges Israel to limit civilian casualties"​

The U.S. has provided Israel with large bunker buster bombs, among tens of thousands of other weapons and artillery shells, to help dislodge Hamas from Gaza, U.S. officials said.

The surge of arms, including roughly 15,000 bombs and 57,000 artillery shells, began shortly after the Oct. 7 attack and has continued in recent days, the officials said. The U.S. hasn’t previously disclosed the total number of weapons it sent to Israel nor the transfer of 100 BLU-109, 2,000-pound bunker buster bombs.

I think the Houtis have gotten an inflated opinion of themselves. They are very close to finding themselves extinct.
