Houthi Rebels Target Commercial Ship in Gulf of Aden Amid Escalating Tensions

Houthi rebels attacked a commercial ship in the Gulf of Aden, causing no damage but heightening tensions in the region. The vessel, identified as Transworld Navigator, evaded the attack without harm. This comes after the recent sinking of Tutor and the US decision to recall the USS Dwight D Eisenhower.

Houthi rebels targeted a commercial ship transiting the Gulf of Aden, officials confirmed Saturday. Despite the strike, no damage was reported, escalating ongoing maritime tensions.

This incident follows the recent sinking of the ship Tutor, marking an escalation by the Iranian-backed Houthis amidst the Israel-Hamas conflict.

Parallelly, the United States ordered the USS Dwight D Eisenhower, leading efforts against Houthi attacks, to return home after an extended mission.
