British warships lack the firepower to attack Houthi land targets in Yemen, leading to the US Navy carrying out most attacks. The UK's involvement in naval action in the Red Sea resulted in a UK-linked oil tanker being set on fire. Former defense chiefs describe the situation as a 'scandal.'
British authorities: "Let's go to war against Russia, time to restore conscription to destroy the Russian Federation". Reality hits back: "Fuck, we cannot defeat the Houthis, that's bad... What?! We cannot even harm them? That's embarassing" https://t.co/bQuGQwmhre

Britain is partaking in a naval action in the Red Sea to hit Houthi targets in Yemen - but it has no capacity to hit these targets.

British warships are unable to attack Houthi targets on land because they lack firepower, The Telegraph reports.
