A crew in the Red Sea was forced to abandon ship after it was hit by Yemen’s Houthi rebels on Sunday, the first attack of its kind since President Trump announced a truce in May after he said the group promised to stop attacking Middle Eastern waterways.

Houthi attacks on a commercial vessel in the Red Sea follow Israeli strikes on Yemen's ports, heightening regional tensions.

A new attack occurred in the Red Sea, hitting a Liberian-flagged ship, following a previous incident reportedly orchestrated by Yemen's Houthi rebels. Two security personnel were injured, and two more are missing.
