Houthi Attack DESTROYS British 'Magic Sea' Ship in Red Sea | Britain Dragged Into Red Sea War [Video]

Houthi Attack DESTROYS British 'Magic Sea' Ship in Red Sea | Britain Dragged Into Red Sea War

This exclusive new footage provides a chilling, firsthand look inside the bulk carrier 'Magic Sea' during a devastating attack by Houthi rebels in the Red Sea. The video captures the sheer panic as alarms blare and glass shatters from the impact of the strike, forcing the crew to abandon the ship just moments before it began to sink. This incident marks a significant escalation in the ongoing Red Sea crisis, which is severely disrupting global shipping routes. The Houthi group in Yemen officially claimed responsibility for the attack, stating they utilized a combination of unmanned boats, naval missiles, and drones. According to a statement by their spokesperson, the group alleges that the 'Magic Sea' had violated their ban on ships entering Israeli ports, which they refer to as "occupied ports." They further claimed that the ship's crew had been issued multiple warnings but failed to comply, leading to the direct strike. In the aftermath of the attack, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) confirmed a successful rescue operation. All 22 crew members and the security staff onboard the vessel were safely evacuated before the ship was completely lost. This attack is the latest in a series of aggressive actions by the Houthis against international maritime traffic, raising global concerns over the security of this critical waterway and the potential for a wider conflict in the Middle East. #RedSea #HouthiAttack #BreakingNews #WorldNews #OneindiaNews #Yemen #MiddleEastCrisis #GlobalShipping #MagicSea #Israel Also Read US and Iran-Backed Houthis Commit to Escalation Following Airstrikes Targeting Yemen Rebels :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-iran-backed-houthis-escalation-airstrikes-yemen-011-4096567.html?ref=DMDesc 17 People Missing After Tourist Yacht Sinks in Red Sea Following High Waves Warning :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/tourist-yacht-sinks-red-sea-17-missing-011-3998351.html?ref=DMDesc US Navy Continues Aircraft Carrier Presence in Red Sea to Counter Houthi Threats :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-navy-extends-aircraft-carrier-deployment-red-sea-011-3838877.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.122~

Strait Of Hormuz In CHAOS: Three Ships Ablaze Near Strait Of Hormuz Amid Israel-Iran Conflict

Amid soaring Israel-Iran tensions, dramatic images on social media show three ships engulfed in flames off the Gulf of Oman near the critical Strait of Hormuz. While authenticity remains unverified, NASA’s FIRMS data also detected fires in the same zone. The area, a vital artery for global oil, has long been a flashpoint.
