Alsace.


This is coolbert:

YAF = Yemen Armed Forces.

No more French naval police actions. Now the real stuff!

"YAF launch drones, ballistic missiles in striking manner: French chief"

From Al Mayadeen English | Source: Le Figaro | 12 Apr 2024.

And don't forget the cruise missiles and unmanned surface vessel attack. YAF able to interdict commercial shipping the Red Sea with multi-faceted attack capability. Hootie Tootie also resilient. Hootie Tootie not so easily deterred!

"The commander of the French FREMM frigate Alsace acknowledges the capabilities of the Yemeni Armed Forces."

"French sources revealed that the French FREMM frigate Alsace has departed from the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden, the French newspaper Le Figaro reported on Thursday."

Alsace the French contribution to the European ASPIDES mission the Red Sea. Alsace hopefully to be replaced by another FREMM class vessel with full naval combat load.

"The frigate's commander, Jerome Henry, acknowledged that the Yemeni Armed Forces 'do not hesitate to use drones and ballistic missiles in a very surprising and striking manner.'"

"'It has been a long time since we dealt with this level of weapons and violence,' he pointed out."

That French navy not having seen such combat action at least since the time of World War Two? You fire at the enemy and the enemy fires at you. Combat actions with pirates don't count.
