Houthis claim cargo ship is at risk of sinking after Red Sea attack - theold - 20-02-2024
The Houthis have claimed one of their most significant strikes since they started launching missiles at ships in the Red Sea, after two projectiles hit a Belize-flagged cargo ship.
The Yemeni rebels claimed the ship was at risk of sinking, a significant propaganda victory for the Houthis if confirmed.
The ship was struck 93 miles east of Aden and follows Houthi claims that they had shot down a US drone over the port of Hodeidah.
Separately on Monday, the security firm Ambrey said another vessel, a US-owned and Greek-flagged bulk carrier, had called for military assistance citing a “missile attack”.
The UK Maritime Organisation also confirmed the incident 100 nautical miles (185km) off Aden in Yemen, with both sources reporting the vessel’s crew were safe'
