"Houthi Militias' Largest Red Sea Merchant Vessel Attack Yet"
Iranian-backed Houthi militias launched their largest attack to date on merchant vessels in the Red Sea, prompting a response from U.S. and coalition forces. Approximately 50 merchant vessels were in the area at the time of the attack, which involved rocket fire and armed drones. Four coalition warships were deployed to the area, and no vessels had reported damage at the time of the report. This comes after a joint statement by 13 nations, including the United States, pledging to hold the militants accountable for attacking commercial vessels in the Red Sea.
