 Yemeni Houthis attack U.S. commercial ship with missiles. Member of Yemen's rebel Ansar ala movement has delivered a missile strike on a U.S. commercial vessel en route to Israel. The movement's military spokesman Yahya Saria said. The Yemeni Navy carried out a high-quality operation by attacking with several anti-ship missiles the U.S. merchant ship Khoi, which was heading to a port in occupied Palestine. Saria said on Houthi run al-Massira television. The spokesman added that Houthis registered a direct hit. In his words, the strike was delivered a few hours after the attack on the U.S. gravely destroyer in the Red Sea. The U.S. Central Command of the Armed Forces, CENTCOM, reported that the U.S. destroyer had shot down an anti-ship missile fired by the Houthis. It is noted that the United States struck up to 10 unmanned drones in Yemen that were preparing to launch. The U.S. Navy ship also shot down three Iranian drones and a Houthi anti-ship ballistic missile in the Gulf of Aden. The U.S. Military Central Command said in a statement. There were no injuries or damage reported, it said. The Houthis earlier said their naval forces carried out an operation targeting an American merchant ship in the Gulf of Aden hours after firing missiles at U.S. Navy destroyer gravely. Houthi attacks on ships in and around the Red Sea have slowed trade between Asia and Europe, raised fears of supply bottlenecks, and alarmed major powers concerned that the Gaza War may become a regional conflict.
