Why it matters: The Red Sea is one of the most important trade routes in the world. Increased Chinese influence over this region could threaten the United States.
Details: U.S. intelligence caught the Iran-backed terrorist group using Chinese weapons in its Red Sea attacks. This deal is also advancing the Houthis’ military technology.
- The Houthis are reportedly planning to use Chinese components to build hundreds of cruise missiles that can reach the Gulf states.
According to a diplomatic source quoted by i24news:
Houthi officials have visited China several times last summer and fall, probably for meetings with high-ranking officials of the regime.
Prophetic perspective: The Bible prophesies that America’s enemies will gain control over major maritime routes, which will help bring down the U.S. The stage is being set for this to be fulfilled.
