Good. Yemen said no US-UK-Zionist ships shall pass, respect their authority over their waters and sail around Africa or deal with the consequences.

The foreign secretary, David Cameron, is finishing a trip to the Middle East, in a diplomatic bid to reduce tensions as the Israeli bombardment of Gaza continues.

I think it's safe to assume tensions will continue. Somebody should float him the idea for a Isrexit referendum.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


An oil tanker is on fire after being struck off the coast of Yemen after Houthi threats in the key shipping route continued despite UK and US strikes.

The Houthis have claimed their naval forces carried out an operation targeting “the British oil tanker Marlin Luanda” in the Gulf of Aden, causing a fire to break out.

In a statement, the company which has offices in Britain, said firefighting equipment on board was being deployed to control the flames and the safety of the crew is its “foremost priority”.

The Houthis have repeatedly launched attacks on ships in the Red Sea since November over Israel’s war on Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

But they have frequently targeted vessels with tenuous or no clear links to Israel, endangering shipping on a key route for global trade.

The foreign secretary, David Cameron, is finishing a trip to the Middle East, in a diplomatic bid to reduce tensions as the Israeli bombardment of Gaza continues.


The original article contains 387 words, the summary contains 162 words. Saved 58%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

and the safety of the crew is its “foremost priority”.

If that really was the case that ship would never have gone there.
