"Houthi Missile Strikes Escalate in Red Sea, Targeting International Ships"
A Houthi rebel missile strike set a British-owned cargo ship ablaze in the Gulf of Aden, leaving one person injured, as the Iran-backed group announced a ban on US, UK, and Israeli ships in the Red Sea. The MV Islander, bound for Egypt, was targeted, and the Houthi terror group has been linked to multiple missile strikes. The group's ban order was delivered to shipping insurers and firms, and they have vowed to continue attacking ships until Israel withdraws from Gaza. The US military intercepted six Houthi attacks in the Red Sea, and Israel's Arrow missile defense system intercepted an attack from the rebels.
