White House says 'Operation Prosperity Guardian' will counter Houthi threats against ships in Red Sea
Fox News
John Kirby told reporters at the White House on Tuesday that "Operation Prosperity Guardian" will counter Houthi attacks on commercial vessels in the Red Sea.
"From the beginning, we’ve said that this is an [initiative] that requires collective and international action, and we’ve been able to bring together, now, a number of partners including the United Kingdom, Bahrain, Canada, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Seychelles, Spain, and even more to address this challenge together," he said. Greg Wehner is a breaking news reporter for Fox News Digital.
Kirby also said the U.S. and others – including 44 signatories including NATO, the entire European Union and G7 – condemning "in the strongest terms" the threats and acts by Houthis. Story tips and can be sent to Greg.Wehner@Fox.com and on Twitter @GregWehner.
