Yemeni Armed Forces spokesperson Yahya Saree recently announced a series of attacks that took place over the last 72 hours, without providing further details. The Iran-aligned Houthis claimed responsibility for targeting a British ship and several US frigates in the Red Sea, as well as attacking two Israeli vessels in the Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean. A British security firm reported an attack on a vessel in the Gulf of Aden, while a missile landed near another ship in the same area with no damage or injuries reported.
Houthi attacks have caused disruptions in global shipping through the Suez Canal, prompting companies to re-route their travels. The US and UK have retaliated with strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen. The group has vowed to target any Israel-linked ships until Israel ceases its actions against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
These recent incidents highlight the ongoing conflict in the region, with no clear indication of who is responsible for the attacks. The attacks have raised concerns about the safety of vessels in the area, with warnings issued for ships to exercise caution and report any suspicious activity. The situation remains tense as tensions between various military factions in the region continue to escalate.
