Houthis tell Trump they will end attacks on Red Sea shipping
US president Donald Trump today claimed the Iran-backed Houthi militia has agreed to end attacks ...
Yet another MSC vessel, MSC Sky II, has faced attack by Houthis rebels. The ship was reportedly targeted by two missiles in the Gulf of Aden; one missed, another hit the accommodation block.
Maritime Executive reports that there were believed to be no injuries and, after firefighting, the ship continued its voyage.
It’s the fourth time an MSC ship has been targeted by militants – which observers say could be because one of MSC’s shareholders was born in Israel.
