Houthis strike US-owned ship, killing two. US and British air forces retaliate in Yemen.

Sharing is Caring!

Eight people were injured, two of them fatally, when Yemeni missiles struck the merchant vessel True Confidence in the Gulf of Aden, the US military said on Wednesday. The crew had to abandon ship, which is at risk of sinking.
The Houthis, styling themselves the government of Yemen, began targeting Israeli-linked ships in late October, protesting the military operation against the Palestinians in Gaza. They added American and British ships in January, after the two countries launched air and missile strikes against Yemen.
