A new attack occurred in the Red Sea, hitting a Liberian-flagged ship, following a previous incident reportedly orchestrated by Yemen's Houthi rebels. Two security personnel were injured, and two more are missing.

Houthi attacks on a commercial vessel in the Red Sea follow Israeli strikes on Yemen's ports, heightening regional tensions.

A freight ship was at risk of sinking in the Red Sea on Monday after Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis attacked it with gunfire, rockets and remote-controlled explosive-laden boats, in their first known attack on the high seas since the start of the year.
