The Houthi rebels in Yemen have claimed responsibility for attacks on two US vessels in the Gulf of Aden and an Israeli ship in the Indian Ocean. The attacks come in response to airstrikes by the US and UK on Houthi positions, as well as Israel’s retaliatory strikes in Gaza. The US has confirmed the attacks and said that coalition forces have shot down several drones and an anti-ship missile launched by the Houthis. The attacks have disrupted shipping in the Red Sea region, forcing some ships to reroute around the Cape of Good Hope.
