A blockade without willingness to fire (even on civilian vessels) is toothless and therefore ineffective. I’m not sure if I’d call what they’re doing a blockade tho, and their justifications linking attacked ships to Israel are… strenuous at times
If its indistinguishable from random attacks to the victims and anyone else at sea the (internationally coordinated) response should be one appropriate to random attacks on sea vessels
The action of attacking random ships in international waters?
This is piracy, and it puts huge numbers of civilian lives at direct risk and increases the chance someone else will also do it in future.
The entire international community has a duty to stop this by almost any means.
Their reasons for attacking civilian shipping in international waters could not be less important to the situation.

It’s not a blockade as they’re no where near Israel. They don’t have the ability to enforce a blockade of Israel, just to attack random ships
