"Fatal Houthi Attack Claims Civilian Lives in Red Sea Shipping Incident"
India's navy evacuated all 20 crew members from a vessel in the Red Sea after a Houthi attack killed three seafarers, marking the first civilian fatalities in the Yemeni group's campaign against the key shipping route. The injured were taken to Djibouti for treatment, and maritime organizations are calling for better protection for civilian seafarers in the region. The frequency of attacks on merchant shipping has led to increased war risk insurance rates and concerns about the safety of the Red Sea transit route.
