DUBAI, United Arab Emirates—A suspected attack by Yemen’s Houthi terrorists targeted a ship in the Gulf of Aden on Tuesday, the latest assault blamed on the group on the crucial maritime trade route.
The captain of the ship reported an explosion in close proximity to the vessel off the coast of Nishtun, Yemen, close to the country’s border with Oman, the British military’s United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations Center said. The ship, whose name and flag were not released, and all crew are safe, the UKMTO said in a warning to mariners.
