DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — An attack by Yemen’s Houthi rebels on a Liberian-flagged cargo ship in the Red Sea killed three mariners and wounded two others, a European Union naval force said Tuesday.

These are the first fatalities from a Red Sea shipping attack since June 2024. Renewed clashes between Israel and the Houthis come amid Gaza ceasefire talks.

Multiple small vessels attacked a ship in the Red Sea near Yemen’s Al Hudaydah port, causing a fire on board and prompting the crew to abandon ship before the Israel army carried out airstrikes on Houthi-controlled ports in Yemen.
