“Without immediate action, this situation could escalate into a major environmental crisis,” said Julien Jreissati, program director at Greenpeace MENA.

“As well as any further leaks of fuel oil from the engines, the sinking of the vessel could further breach the hull, allowing water to contact with the thousands of tonnes of fertilizer, which could then be released into the Red Sea and disrupt the balance of the marine ecosystems, triggering cascading effects throughout the food web.”

Good job Houthi, you saved Gaza.

Good bye local fisheries. Hello starvation, my old friend.

Who did this to us?!?

The attacks have also disrupted aid shipments to both Yemen and Sudan, which is gripped by its own monthslong war. In recent days, the International Rescue Committee said it suspended its aid shipments to Port Sudan through the Red Sea over long delays and drastically increased costs. 

Also:

The approximately 21,000 metric tons of ammonium phosphate sulfate fertilizer that the vessel was carrying presents an environmental risk in the Red Sea,”

At this point, anyone unquestionably defending the Houthis as this noble fighting force standing for Hamas has a questionable narrative they are pushing. And I see the same person commenting all over and glazing for the houthis like they are the second coming of the Messiah.

Like how the top 3 comments are concerned about the ecological impacts and not the fact that attacking a supply line was probably the first thing thought of after the invention of war.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — A ship attacked by Yemen’s Houthi rebels has sunk in the Red Sea after days of taking on water, officials said Saturday, the first vessel to be fully destroyed as part of their campaign over Israel’s war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

The sinking of the Rubymar comes as shipping through the crucial waterway for cargo and energy shipments moving from Asia and the Middle East to Europe has been affected by the Houthi attacks.

The sinking could see further detours and higher insurance rates put on vessels plying the waterway — potentially driving up global inflation and affecting aid shipments to the region.

The Belize-flagged Rubymar had been drifting northward after being struck by a Houthi anti-ship ballistic missile on Feb. 18 in the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, a crucial waterway linking the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden.

The British military’s United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations center, which watches over Mideast waterways, separately acknowledged the Rubymar’s sinking Saturday afternoon.

Ahmed Awad Bin Mubarak, the prime minister of Yemen’s internationally recognized government, called the ship’s sinking “an unprecedented environmental disaster.”

I've yet to see eco-fascists going "tHanKs HouThis yOu SaVEd gAzA!!" shedding a single tear for Gaza, where Israeli uranium, lead, and phosphorus have turned the very soil that once hosted olive trees into an uninhabitable zone rife with cancer, blight, and birth defects.

Prior to the attacks, they would pay a 0.02% insurance premium to transit the Red Sea – or $20,000. Now that has jumped to upwards of 1% - or a cool $1 million. That is, if insurers are willing to underwrite the ship at all – which several insurers are no longer willing to do with ships affiliated with the United States, United Kingdom or Israel, which the Houthis have vowed to target.

Skill issue, I would simply stop supply the genocidal ethnostate
