A commercial ship traveling through the Red Sea was attacked on Wednesday, suspected to have been carried out by Yemen's Houthi rebels, according to the British military. The vessel was left 'not under command' following the assault, which occurred around 140 kilometers west of the rebel-held Yemeni port city of Hodeida.
The attack involved men on small boats opening fire with small arms and three projectiles hitting the ship. It was not immediately clear whether the projectiles were drones or missiles. Fortunately, no casualties were reported, but the ship lost all power as a result of the attack.
