Yemen Missile Strikes US-Owned Ship In Gulf Of Aden Amid Rising Tensions | English News | News18A missile launched from Yemen hit a US-owned ship near the coast of Yemen in the Gulf of Aden, shortly after Houthi rebels fired an anti-ship missile towards a US destroyer in the Red Sea. Suspicions point to the Iranian-backed Houthis, but they have not claimed responsibility for the attack on the Gibraltar Eagle. The Eagle Gibraltar, a Marshall Islands-flagged bulk carrier owned by Eagle Bulk, based in Connecticut, was reportedly targeted. The ship was bound for the Suez Canal but altered its course after the attack, according to satellite-tracking data.
