Houthi rebels attacked a Liberian-flagged cargo ship in the Red Sea, killing three and wounding two sailors. This follows a previous attack on another vessel on Sunday, marking the first such attacks since November 2024. The EU naval force and the US Embassy condemned the attacks, citing blatant disregard for human life and disruption of maritime trade. The attacks raise concerns about renewed Houthi aggression and potential escalation in the region, particularly given ongoing tensions in the Middle East.
