Iran and Yemen: Renewed Attacks Raise Maritime Tensions
In the Middle East, the Iranian-backed Houthis have resumed their attacks on shipping in the Red Sea after months of relative silence. The group claimed responsibility for an attack on the Liberian-flagged bulk carrier Magic Seas, severely damaging the vessel and forcing the crew to abandon ship. Fortunately, all 19 crew members were rescued with assistance from UAE authorities.
