United Kingdom Foreign Secretary David Cameron said that his country is ready to launch another strike on Houthi positions in Yemen if the attacks by the rebels on commercial vessels in the Red Sea continue.
In an article he wrote for The Telegraph, Cameron stressed that if the Houthis are allowed to "deny passage to ships, vital supply chains are threatened and prices will go up in Britain and across the globe."
Furthermore, the foreign secretary underlined that Thursday's strikes on Houthi targets, conducted by the US and UK forces, weakened Houthi capabilities "built up with Iranian backing" to some extent. Additionally, he reiterated that the UK "will always defend the freedom of navigation. And, crucially, we will be prepared to back words with actions."
