The crew of a British-registered, Lebanese-operated cargo ship that was seriously damaged in a missile attack by Houthi terrorists off Yemen on Feb. 18 has safely abandoned the vessel, maritime officials say.
The vessel, which is at risk of sinking, reportedly had been traveling through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, which connects the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden waterways. A second ship reportedly came under attack in the Gulf of Aden.
