Yemen's Houthi rebels fire missiles at British ship in Gulf of Aden
Quote:
Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis fired naval missiles at the British ship 'LYCAVITOS' in the Gulf of Aden, the group's military spokesman Yahya Sarea said in a televised speech today.
British maritime security firm Ambrey said that a bulk carrier suffered minor damage today after being targeted by an explosive projectile some 100 nautical miles east of Yemen's port city of Aden.
The damage was caused by shrapnel that caused a diesel leak, Ambrey said in its advisory note, making clear the explosion occurred some 100 miles away and did not directly impact the carrier. The crew members were unharmed, it added.
Separately the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) agency said today it had received a report of an explosion near a vessel some 85 nautical miles east of Aden.
It is not clear if either of the attacks refer to the one on 'LYCAVITOS'.
