A multinational effort to protect Red Sea shipping has been announced in the hope of repelling the mounting attacks from Yemen's rebel Houthis.

US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin announced the formation of Operation Prosperity Guardian. The UK is one of the many countries joining forces as part of the Washington-led alliance looking to ensure commercial vessels can navigate the region in safety.

Forces News has taken a look at the creation of this naval protection force and the warships joining the effort.
