The attack by an Iranian UAV on a ship sailing in the Arabian Sea on Saturday evening is another example of the threat posed by Iran to the global economy and to the freedom of navigation in the open seas. Even if the damaged ship is in one way or another related to an Israeli businessman, the attack is not on the State of Israel, its economy, or its resources, but on the freedom of navigation on the open seas, which allows the movement of the global economy and global trade. Such damage, similar to the hijacking of another ship by Iran's Houthi affiliates, once again positions Iran as a source of global terrorism. This is another opportunity for countries that are threatened by Iranian terrorism by its various proxies to unite in a naval alliance in order to prevent damage to their interests and the interests of the entire world.
When such forces unite, achievements are possible. We saw this in dealing with Iranian terrorism in the Strait of Hormuz in the past, as well as recently in effective international military activity in the Red Sea, which results in thwarting attempts at terrorism, such as the launch of UAVs and missiles.
The freedom of navigation in the sea lanes is an interest that crosses borders and nationalities and should be treated as such.
