Houthi Strike Kills 3 on Cargo Ship | Edmonton News
Description
A cargo ship flying Tanzania’s flag was struck by a projectile in the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, killing three crew members — two from Pakistan and one from Indonesia — marking the first confirmed fatalities from a Houthi strike since February. The vessel, en route from Oman to Djibouti, lost control after the attack near Perim Island, prompting Yemeni coast guard intervention. Though the Houthis haven’t claimed responsibility, their recent naval blockade against Saudi Arabia has heightened tensions. Shipping traffic through the strait has plummeted, raising alarms for global maritime security.
