‘Timhouthi Chalamet’: The TikTok Star Touring a Captured Ship in the Red Sea
A young Yemeni man named Rashid Al Haddad, also known as ‘Timhouthi Chalamet,’ has gained online popularity by posting videos of himself touring a captured cargo ship in the Red Sea. While his TikTok account mysteriously disappeared, his Instagram page is still live. The videos provide a unique perspective on an escalating conflict in the region. Criticism arises from the glamorization of the Houthi group, accused of war crimes and human rights violations. The attacks on shipping vessels in the Red Sea carry significant implications for global trade and the economy.
