TL;DR Summary

The US military has warned of an "environmental disaster" in the Red Sea after an attack by Yemen's Houthi rebels on a cargo ship caused an oil slick.

The US has confirmed "self-defense strikes" on Houthi-controlled positions in Yemen and expressed concern over the impact of the attacks on regional trade and the environment.
