    The Houthis not only shot at ships, they captured ships and still hold their crew hostage. That’s piracy and attacking trade routes in international waters. Of course that can’t go unanswered. So far the answer was pretty restrained. It took a long time until ground targets in Yemen were even attacked. At first the focus was on missile defense.

      Like I said, it’s a good thing the good guys have the world’s largest navy so they can police these waters.
