Several Russian warships have made their way through the Bab al-Mandab Strait into the Red Sea, according to reports from the Russian Navy’s Pacific Fleet. This development comes amidst ongoing attacks by Yemen’s Houthis on merchant shipping in the region.
The Zvezda TV channel, which is owned by the defense ministry, cited the fleet confirming the participation of the Russian cruiser Varyag and the frigate Marshal Shaposhnikov in this maritime maneuver.
Houthi militants in Yemen have been implicated in multiple attacks on vessels transiting the Bab al-Mandab Strait since November. The group claims these actions are in solidarity with Palestinians.
