Operation Red Sea (红海行动, Hong hai xing dong) est un film de guerre chinois réalisé par Dante Lam, sorti le 16 février 2018. Il s'inspire très approximativement de l'évacuation de 225 étrangers et presque 600 ressortissants chinois du port d'Aden au Yémen en 2015 durant la guerre civile yéménite. Le film est du même style que Operation Mekong (2016) du même réalisateur.
Il sort à l'occasion du 90e anniversaire de la fondation de l'Armée populaire de libération, et peu de temps après le 19e congrès national. Il est présenté comme étant le « premier film naval moderne chinois ». Il totalise 579 millions de $ de recette, en faisant pour l'instant le septième plus grand succès mondial de 2018 et le deuxième plus gros succès chinois de tous les temps.
Synopsis
En service en mer Rouge, une flotte de patrouille de la Marine chinoise reçoit un appel de détresse d'un cargo attaqué par des pirates somaliens qui menacent les passagers et les marins chinois présents à bord. Elle déploie immédiatement une unité d'intervention rapide, baptisée Jiaolong et composée de 8 personnes, destinée à ralentir la progression des pirates jusqu'à ce que les navires de la Marine, lourdement armés, puissent arriver sur la zone. Déployé par hélicoptère, l'unité débarque sur le cargo. Son tireur de précision est gravement blessé à la colonne vertébrale et doit être remplacé. L'équipe d'assaut est félicitée de son travail une fois la flotte principale arrivée.
