GermanyA cargo ship was attacked in the Red Sea off the coast of Yemen, according to the UK Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO). The incident occurred 30 nautical miles southwest of Hodeida, a city controlled by the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels. UKMTO reported that an unidentified skiff approached the vessel, opened fire, and was repelled by the ship's security personnel. No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack.
