"Houthi Missile Attack Sets Oil Tanker Ablaze in Gulf of Aden"
TL;DR Summary
A Marshall Islands-flagged tanker hit by a Houthi missile off Yemen was extinguished by its crew after hours of fire, complicating the Red Sea crisis amid the conflict between the rebels and the US. The tanker carried Russian-produced naphtha, drawing Moscow further into the conflict, and the US conducted a strike against a Houthi anti-ship missile. The Indian navy assisted in fighting the fire, and the rebels have threatened to target American and British ships. Another incident involving armed individuals near a vessel in the Arabian Sea was reported, possibly linked to increased Somali pirate activity.
