A Greek flagged ship, the Sounion, is at risk in the Red Sea due to attacks by Iran-backed Houthi rebels. The vessel, carrying 1 million barrels of oil, faces the threat of an environmental disaster if the oil spills into the sea. Greece is leading efforts to evacuate and tow the ship, but the danger remains imminent.
Bradley Bowman, from the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, discusses the crisis in the Red Sea, Iran’s support for the Houthis, and the measures taken to prevent an environmental catastrophe. He also explores strategies to safeguard shipping and counter the Houthi threat.
