Houthi missile hits US-owned ship off Yemen coast, US officials say | BBC News

Houthis in Yemen have hit a US-owned ship with a missile, but no injuries or significant damage have been reported, American officials have said.   The vessel was hit “in response to strikes by the US and UK on Houthis in Yemen“, a British maritime security firm said.   The Iran-backed Houthis have been attacking cargo ships since November. They said these are Israeli-linked - though many have no connections with Israel.   Maritime security firm, Ambrey, said the vessel hit by the missile was “assessed to not be Israel-affiliated“.
