[HIGHLIGHTS] Red Sea: Houthi attack on freighter “True Confidence” – at least two dead

Iran-backed Houthi militia has again attacked a ship in the Red Sea. At least two sailors died in the incident, according to Western officials.

The burning “True Confidence’ is floating in the sea. The ship was hit by a missile, the freighter's Liberia-based owner and Greek operator said. There were 20 sailors and three armed security guards on board. The militia has repeatedly targeted civilian merchant ships in the past few weeks and months. One of the most important shipping routes for world trade runs along Yemen.
