HMS Diamond to join international task force protecting the Red Sea
Tuesday, 19 December 2023 The Royal Navy's HMS Diamond is to join the international task force protecting ships that travel through the Red Sea, after a spate of attacks by Houthi militia.
The HMS Diamond, a UK warship, intercepted a ballistic missile launched by Houthi rebels in Yemen, marking the Royal Navy's first such interception since the Gulf War. Deployed in the Gulf of Aden to protect a commercial vessel, the Type 45 destroyer used advanced Sea Viper missile interceptors. The targeted ship, MV Yorktown, was unharmed. This highlights escalating tensions in the region, with Houthi rebels employing Iranian-origin missiles and drones
