Original Note:
Misleading: the blockade has involved repeated violent seizures of civilian ships as well as *firing missiles at civilian ships*. The fact there have been no casualties is the result of a *lack of success* by the strikes. Antiship cruise missiles are not nonlethal munitions. https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/12/13/yemen-houthis-attack-civilian-ships https://www.npr.org/2024/01/10/1223906769/yemens-houthis-red-sea-attack-missiles-drones-us-navy-un-resolution
