It's not yet known if anyone was killed or injured in the operation.

But while gaining more attention internationally, ...

Missile attacks twice damaged a Marshall Islands-flagged, Greek-owned ship Tuesday in the Red Sea off the coast of Yemen, with a private security firm saying radio traffic suggested the vessel took on water after being struck. No group claimed responsibility, but suspicion fell on Yemen's Houthi rebels, who have launched a number of attacks targeting ships over Israel's war on Hamas in the Gaza Strip. The first attack on the bulk carrier Laax happened off the port city of Hodeida in the southern Red Sea, near the Bab el-Mandeb Strait that links it to the Gulf of Aden, according to the UK milit...

A drone launched from an area in Yemen controlled by Houthi rebels was intercepted by the EU's mission in the Red Sea on Thursday morning, according to a top military officer. The unmanned aerial device was shot down by a frigate that’s part of an EU mission in the Middle Eastern waterway to protect merchant shipping. Austrian General Robert Brieger, who is chair of the EU’s military committee, said it was crucial for the bloc to “conserve resources” in the long run because the threat posed by Houthi attacks “will not disappear” due to its connection to the Israel-Hamas war. “The task given to...

The explosion comes after a relative lull from the Houthis, who have launched dozens of attacks on shipping in the region over Israel's ongoing war on Hamas in the Gaza Strip. The Houthis did not immediately claim responsibility...
