DUBAI: A suspected attack by Yemen’s Houthis targeted a ship in the Red Sea on Thursday, officials said, as the group increased its missile fire targeting Israel.
The attack off the coast of Hodeida follows an Israeli strike last week that killed the Houthis’ prime minister along with several officials. The Houthis have been using cluster munitions in the missile attacks on Israel — which open up with smaller explosives that can be harder to intercept, raising the chances of strikes as Israel prepares for a new ground offensive in its war on Hamas that’s decimated the Gaza Strip.
