Houthis Strike ANOTHER Tanker And The Saudis Are FREAKING OUT!

Right, so the Houthis sent Saudi Arabia what amounts to a polite RSVP for the Red Sea fireworks, as if missile launches were just another part of the evening's schedule.Tankers immediately began performing the maritime equivalent of a panicked three-point turn, much like learner drivers who suddenly spot the examiner.Trump was asked about the situation and, in his usual style, declared he'd handle everything, since there is apparently no crisis so severe that Donald Trump cannot resolve it simply by announcing he already has.Then the tanker the ENCELIA ended up with a front-row seat to the Red Sea's updated guest policy: BYOM-Bring Your Own Missile.Saudi Arabia confirmed the attack. Confirmed the fire at the bow. Confirmed the crew had been left fighting it at sea.Yemen claims it hit another tanker, the LAYLA too, but that's still awaiting confirmation at the time of writing.Honestly, one Saudi-confirmed tanker fire is already enough to turn 'safe alternative route' into a rather unfunny joke.They were warned, they just kept going.And now Riyadh's plan to avoid Hormuz comes with a complimentary missile barrage at the finish line-collect your shrapnel on the way out.So much for the 'safe' part.
