Ballistic missiles fired by Yemen's Houthi rebels damage Panama-flagged oil tanker en route to India from Russia in Red Sea

Yemen's Houthi rebels have caused minor damage to a Panama-flagged oil tanker traveling through the Red Sea, following an uptick in attacks since a relative lull in their campaign over Israel's war on Hamas in the Gaza Strip. The rebels fired three missiles, one of which damaged the tanker. The attack occurred off Mocha, Yemen, near the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, which connects the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden. The Houthis have launched more than 50 attacks on shipping, seized one vessel, and sank another since November.
