Houthis fire 3-rocket barrage, hit US cargo ship

In an incident involving Iran-backed Houthis, a US-owned cargo ship was struck after the rebels fired a three-rocket barrage.

One of the missiles hit the port side of the vessel “from above,” while the other two failed to reach the sea. This attack occurred shortly after a US warship intercepted a cruise missile launched by the Houthi rebels.

The US Centcom reported that the three missiles were launched from near Hodeida, a Red Sea port city under Houthi control, around 4 pm Sanaa time.

Maritime risk firms Ambrey and Dryad Global identified the targeted vessel as the Eagle Gibraltar, a bulk carrier flagged in the Marshall Islands and owned by a US entity.

Ambrey stated that the attack was in retaliation for US military strikes on Houthi positions in Yemen, emphasizing that it specifically targeted US interests, The Sun reported.
