Houthis launch attacks on 3 ships and 2 US destroyers in nearby waters, group says | World News

The Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen said on Monday they had launched attacks on three ships in the Indian Ocean and the Red Sea, as well as two US destroyers in the Red Sea.

The Houthi fighters, who describe their attacks on ships as an act of solidarity with the Palestinians in Israel’s Gaza war, named three of the vessels: the Larego Desert and the MSC Mechela in the Indian Ocean and the Minerva Lisa in the Red Sea.
