As a result of a Houthi attack on a ship in the Aden Butt, two sailors died. The first victims of militant attacks are from the beginning of the strikes.
This was announced by the British Embassy in Yemen, reports RBC-Ukraine via Sky News.
“At least two innocent sailors perished. This is a dubious, yet inevitable legacy of the fact that the Houthis recklessly fired missiles at international shipping,” the embassy said in a statement.
The agency called on the Houthis to stop fighting, and also ordered sleeping with the families of the dead.
The vessel True Confidence, under the ensign of Barbados, was attacked by a missile approximately 50 nautical miles (92 kilometers) on a daytime call from the Yemen port of Aden.
The sailors abandoned the vessel after strike, and military boats were marked near the water, according to an unnamed US defense official.
The Houthis took credit for the attack, saying that True Confidence would never fall to the Americans. This information is untrue.
Houthi attacks at the Red Sea
It seems that since the fall of leaves in 2023, the Yemeni Houthis began to regularly attack commercial ships in the Aden Sea and in the Black Sea with drones, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles stinking sea. The first attacks began immediately after the outbreak of war between Israel and Hamas.
In response to regular attacks by militants, the United States and Great Britain first launched missiles at Houthi military targets on the 12th Yemeni.
On the 17th of today, the United States brought in the Houthis before the overflow of the world's terrorist organizations.
