Houthi Rebels HIJACK, DETONATE & SINK ‘Israel-Bound’ Eternity C Ship; 15 Crew Missing, 4 Dead

Yemen’s Houthi rebels have launched another deadly assault in the Red Sea, targeting the cargo ship Eternity C. This attack, involving sea drones and rocket-propelled grenades, has tragically resulted in four deaths, including a Russian and three Filipinos, with 15 crew members still missing and fears of kidnapping. This incident follows closely on the heels of the Houthis sinking another cargo vessel, the Magic Seas, though all crew were rescued from that ship. The attacks, which began in November 2023, had paused briefly due to a ceasefire, but resumed after the truce in Gaza ended, raising renewed concerns about the safety of crucial global shipping lanes.
