Two ships catch fire after missile strikes off Yemen's Aden

Hindustan Times  

Two ships caught on fire after being hit by projectiles off Yemen's Aden, two UK maritime agencies reported on Sunday. The British security firm Ambrey said on Sunday an Antigua- and Barbuda-flagged general cargo ship was struck by a missile 83 nautical miles southeast of Aden and caught fire. Earlier, the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations said it had received a report from a captain of a vessel of an incident 80 nautical miles southeast of Aden. Houthi fighters have launched drone and missile attacks in the Bab al-Mandab Strait and Gulf of Aden, forcing shippers since November to take longer and more costly journeys around southern Africa.
