This is

this is CBSi in the world. I'm John Batsw with Joe Truzmann and Bill Rajo, the Foundation for the Defense of Democracy.

Bill is my colleague and co-host and Joe is helping us

understand what we have so far about huthi attacks over the last nine, ten months.

The huthi is striking out of North Yemen, at shipping in the Red Sea at U.S. and Royal Navy warships.

Randomly it appears at many flagged vessels.

However, they've also been attacking I lot, the southernmost city of Israel on the Red Sea.

And now they've attacked Tel Aviv. I follow-up to that was an Israeli attack on Houdidah, a Yemen port suspect of bringing in

weapons from Iran. So far it looks like an easy scorecard, but here's the twist. Last week there was a report

from Washington given to us by the intelligence community. You don't get this

with sources. They give it to you, that they were warning the Russians not to send anti-ship missiles

to the Huthies.

I will repeat that.

The intelligence community of the

by administration was telling Moscow which is an adversary in Ukraine

not to send anti-ship missiles good stuff first rate. Russians have a first-rate missile

factory to the huthies. Why? More complication. Because the Russians know that

NATO has now approved missiles to Ukraine

that can reach deep into Russia, can hit infrastructure, can hit military

encampments, can damage, can decap major missiles. And the body

administration has been reluctant for the nine or ten months to put those

missiles into the hands of people they can't account for.
