The Egyptian military source said in statements to RT that it is a good idea, but at the same time it will be very expensive.
The military source explained that the United States of America is working to form an expanded maritime protection force that includes Arab countries to combat the increasingly frequent Houthi attacks launched from Yemeni ports on commercial ships in the Red Sea, indicating that it is best for Egypt to work within an international coalition to protect international navigation, and not alone. In this file.
Lieutenant General Mohab Mameesh, advisor to the Egyptian President for Ports and former head of the Suez Canal Authority, had called for the necessity of providing an Egyptian security force stationed adjacent to one of the countries.
Mamish explained in a telephone conversation with the journalist Amr Adeeb on his program “The Story” These forces will aim to accompany ship convoys heading to the Suez Canal and passing through the Bab al-Mandab Strait.
Mamish revealed that any change that occurs in Bab al-Mandab negatively affects the Egyptian shipping lane, explaining that the Suez Canal is the main source of hard currency for the Egyptian economy and must be preserved.
He explained that the Egyptian insurance force is trained to the highest level and will be able to protect ships, stressing that this is a necessary requirement before the Suez Canal is completely affected by the major lines diverting routes away from the Red Sea.
For its part, Israeli media revealed that Egypt has so far refused to join any international military coalition in the Red Sea led by the United States of America to deter the Houthi group in Yemen.
Pinhas Anbari, a senior researcher at the Jerusalem Center for Public and State Affairs for Middle East Affairs, a center affiliated with the Israeli government, said that at the end of last week there were two developments that do not bode well for achieving the goals of the war in Gaza, and that the two developments are interconnected and stem from Israel’s refusal to define the goals of the war as The United States sees it, and Egypt’s refusal to join an international coalition deters the Houthis.
The Israeli analyst explained that there is a plan to establish an organization like NATO in the Middle East, where Israel will be alongside the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in its base to deter the Houthi group in Yemen after they threatened the most important global shipping lane by striking commercial ships heading to the Israeli port of Eilat.
The Israeli research center explained that Egypt is currently hesitant about this initiative, but it may also join it in the future.
He added: “Until now, Egypt has remained hesitant about the Arab-Israeli regional alliance, because it fears its status as a leading power in the eyes of the Arab and Islamic world. It also refuses to acknowledge the fact that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has taken its place, and even more so, that Israel will stand alongside Saudi Arabia.” Plans to connect India across the Gulf to Saudi Arabia and Jordan to Israel make sleepless nights slip away, and this great road, designed to eliminate the Shiite arc and the Chinese Silk Road, will make the Suez Canal redundant. What threatens Egypt’s economy?
He added: “Israel’s problem is that if it does not show interest in the great strategic path of the United States, as the great road will pass from India to Egypt and not to Israel if Israel continues its current policy, so instead of the end of the road reaching Ashdod in Israel, his Egyptian counterpart will open this.” The road in Al-Arish.
The Israeli analyst concluded his warning to the Israeli government, saying: “Israel will collapse and turn into a Jewish ghetto and an isolated island in the middle of an Arab ocean.”
