Houthis Target Iran-Bound Cargo Ship in Red Sea Attack

Houthi forces in Yemen have attacked an Iran-bound grain cargo ship in the Red Sea, marking their first strike in six days and raising questions about their capabilities and targeting. The US and UK have been conducting strikes against the group, with claims that these actions have deterred potential targets from entering the Red Sea. The Houthi leader claims the attacks are in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, but the UK defense secretary has accused them of being "opportunist pirates." The US has warned of designating the Houthis as a global terrorist group if the attacks continue, while efforts to broker a peace deal in Yemen are currently frozen.
