Houthi Rebels Intensify Attacks on Cargo Ships in Gulf of Aden

Recent missile strikes and drone operations target vessels allegedly linked to Israel, escalating maritime security concerns.

Houthi rebels claimed responsibility for a second attack on the cargo ship Groton in August.
The attacks are part of a broader campaign purportedly in support of Palestinians amid the Gaza conflict.
Missiles and drones were used in the latest assault, with no reported casualties or significant damage.
The UK Maritime Trade Operations confirmed the safety of the Groton's crew following the attack.
US Central Command reported the destruction of Houthi drones posing threats to coalition forces.
