Egypt is preparing for a military operation against the Houthis, media reports

Egypt is preparing for a possible military operation against the Houthis in Yemen due to threats to shipping lanes and losses from the Suez Canal. It is planned to use Rafale and F-16 fighters for airstrikes against Houthi positions. These actions are intended to ensure the security of trade routes.

According to Maariv, the possible strikes were caused by attacks by the Houthis, leading to economic losses, including a decrease in revenue from the Suez Canal by seven billion dollars. The security of the canal is important for the global supply of goods.

Expert Muhammad Mehran explains that Egypt is acting in accordance with Article 51 of the UN Charter, defending itself against Houthi threats. The military prepares for potential threats and emphasizes protecting national interests while ignoring external pressure. Egypt does not confirm information about the process.
