Red Sea attacks: Greek cargo vessel hit by missile off Yemen as tensions mount | Oneindia News
A Greek-owned cargo ship in the southern Red Sea was struck by a missile, as reported by a maritime risk management company on Tuesday.
The vessel, flying the Malta flag, is owned by a Greek company and was en route from Israel to Suez when the incident occurred.
Following the missile impact, the ship altered its course and proceeded to port.
The attack is part of a series of recent incidents in the Red Sea involving Yemen's Houthi rebels.
Notably, there has been no immediate response or comment from the Houthis, who targeted American vessels in the region in the wake of recent US and UK strikes on their territory.
Yemen's Houthi rebels have claimed responsibility for two attacks on ships in the Gulf of Aden and another assault in the Indian Ocean. The group's military spokesperson, Yahya Saree, announced the attacks on the MSC Diego and MSC Gina in the Gulf of Aden, along with the previously unreported attack on the MSC Vittoria in the Indian Ocean. These incidents raise concerns about the potential use of underwater drones (UUVs) by the Houthis, posing a significant threat to shipping, particularly in the Red Sea. The Centre for International Maritime Security has highlighted the secretive nature of Houthi UUV capabilities, warning of the devastating impact on targeted vessels. Amidst these developments, the Houthis have issued warnings to Israel over the conflict in the Gaza Strip, asserting that their attacks on shipping aim to pressure Israel to end the war. They have vowed to continue these assaults until Israel ceases its military actions in Gaza.
