Yemen’s Houthi rebels have claimed responsibility for a missile attack on a cargo ship in the Gulf of Aden, marking the first such attack since Israel struck a Houthi-controlled port last month. The attack was allegedly in retaliation for the ship’s owner violating a ban on entering ports in ‘occupied Palestine,’ according to the Houthis. While the ship sustained minor damage, all crew members remained safe. This incident follows a pattern of attacks by the Houthis on commercial ships in the Red Sea and Arabian Sea since November, aimed at supporting Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

Four weeks after a cargo ship crashed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge, causing its collapse, the Port of Baltimore has reopened with a new deep-water channel. The Balsa 94 is the first cargo ship to navigate the new 35-foot channel. Two workers who were thrown into the water survived, and the bodies of four victims have been recovered. Two more workers are still missing and presumed dead. The collapse brought maritime traffic to a halt, but crews are still working through the massive cleanup process. The new temporary channel will remain open until Monday or Tuesday of next week.
