The Biden White House is threatening to slap an official terror designation on Yemen's Houthi militia after it seized an Israel-linked cargo vessel in the Red Sea (details below).
On Tuesday, as 25 international crew are still being held hostage after Houthi militants boarded the vessel by helicopter Sunday, National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told reporters that "in light of... the piracy of a ship in international waters, we have begun a review of potential terrorist designations and we’ll be considering other options together with our allies and partners as well."
Importantly, Kirby also directly alleged that Iran was complicit. The Houthis have expressly said that the seizure was in retaliation for Israel's onslaught on Gaza, which has killed some 13,000 Palestinians - mostly civilians. Per a White House press briefing

کیا آپ کارگو جہاز پر حملے کو دہشت گردی کی کارروائی تصور کریں گے، اور کیوں یا کیوں نہیں؟
