Map Explainer: Houthi Attacks in the Red Sea 🚢

The Iranian-backed group is attacking cargo ships that they believe are delivering goods to Israel, forcing ocean carriers like MSC and Hapag-Lloyd to cancel routes.

In response, the U.S. has recently announced a defense coalition consisting of 10 nations that will work together to strengthen security in the area.
