Yemen's Houthi militants have been linked to ship attacks in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden. The attacks targeted a Panama-flagged bulk carrier, but no damage or injuries were reported. The Houthis have been carrying out a months-long assault on shipping in the area, which sees $1 trillion in goods pass through it annually. The group claims to target ships linked to Israel, the US, or the UK to end Israel's military campaign against Hamas in Gaza.
