Sunak on Houthis strikes: We're not seeking confrontation
There is an “ongoing and imminent threat” from Houthis in the Red Sea to shipping, Rishi Sunak has told MPs.
He said the second round of action was “fully in-line with international law”, and in self defence, with maximum care to prevent civilian lives.
He said Britain “was not seeking a confrontation” but would not hesitate to act again, adding: "Inaction is also a choice."
New US-UK strikes on Houthis send 'clearest message', says Cameron
