On Monday, US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin announced the creation of a multinational operation to secure the Red Sea in response to attacks on Israeli cargo ships. Participating nations include the UK, Bahrain, Canada, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, the Seychelles, and Spain. The Yemeni resistance vowed to attack any ships joining the US-led maritime coalition.

The Yemeni Military insisted that it is exclusively targeting Israeli-linked ships or ones heading to Israeli ports and that the Red Sea remains safe for navigation for all other vessels,

White House National Security Council spokeswoman Adrienne Watson on Friday accused Iran of being "deeply involved" in planning operations against vessels in the Red Sea. Iran has rejected these accusations, denying any involvement in the Yemeni operations.

During a press conference on Friday, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres told reporters that the spillover effects of the war on Gaza are already happening.

"The spillover is already happening," he told reporters.
