"Houthi Rebels Claim Attack on US Container Ship in Red Sea"

The Houthi movement in Yemen claims to have targeted a US merchant ship named KOI in the Red Sea, but maritime sources and industry publications have labeled the claim as fake, with one ship reportedly experiencing a blast on its starboard without being named. The US launched airstrikes in Yemen, targeting ten drones, and reported shooting down Iranian drones and a Houthi anti-ship ballistic missile. Houthi attacks on shipping in the Red Sea have raised concerns about international trade disruptions, with the group considering US and British ships in the region as legitimate targets in response to perceived aggression.
