Government slammed over rejection of warship request by the United States to the Red Sea

Sky News host Chris Kenny slams the denial of the Australian government to help out with a request for a naval warship by the United States. “I’ve spoken the past two nights about the incredible decision by Australia to reject the US request for a naval warship,” Mr Kenny said. “To be deployed to the Red Sea. “To help out with an international force, combatting or protecting commercial shipping in that area.” The US launched a multi-country coalition to protect ships passing through the Red Sea after weeks of drone and ballistic missile attacks by Iranian-backed Houthi rebels.
