Battle for the Red Sea

The Hodeida campaign is a story of military victories that could not be fully realized because of the global opposition to the completion of the Red Sea liberation battle. Today, with the Houthis threatening global shipping with advanced Iran-provided missiles, the original wisdom of the Hodeida campaign is recognized by growing numbers of analysts, including many who opposed the operations at the time.Focusing on the battle itself, the diplomatic clashes, and the struggle to tell the truth in the global media, The Battle for the Red Sea covers a war in multiple locations: in Hodeida, the UN and in the White House.One important aspect of the book will be taking a deep and honest look at the humanitarian concerns around the Hodeida campaign, including critical assessment of whether a famine was likely and what the hidden humanitarian costs of inaction have been since 2018. Would accepting more risk then have saved more lives later?
