Houthi Rebels Strike Ship in Red Sea, Crew Safe

TL;DR Summary
Yemen's Houthi rebels targeted a tanker in the Red Sea, claiming it was Israel-affiliated, but the ship's crew was unharmed. The rebels have been attacking ships in response to Israel's conflict with Hamas in Gaza, and have also claimed to target an American destroyer. Recent reports suggest the Houthis now possess hypersonic missiles, posing a more serious threat to ships in the region. The attacks have raised the profile of the rebels, who are seeking to pressure Israel and its allies.
