The United States and its partners will “continue to take appropriate action” to protect Red Sea shipping from attacks by the Houthi militia, State Department spokesman Matthew Miller says.
“The United States condemns the reckless and indiscriminate attacks on civilian cargo ships by the Houthis. The Houthis are behaving like a terrorist organization,” he says in a statement.
