Yemen's Houthi militants launched ballistic missiles targeting two vessels linked to the US and UK overnight, according to US military officials. The UK-managed cargo ship, Morning Tide, was attacked west of Hodeidah, sustaining damage to its bridge windows. Despite the attack, no injuries were reported, and the ship continued its course. Another Greek-owned bulker, Star Nasia, reported an explosion near its hull in the Gulf of Aden. US Central Command reported three missile attacks, with one intercepted by the USS Laboon. The Houthis claimed responsibility for the assaults, vowing to continue targeting "hostile American-British" vessels until the Gaza conflict ends. The incidents mark the latest in a series of maritime attacks in the region, drawing international attention to ongoing security threats in the Red Sea.
