2 Israeli cities also attacked,
Prospect of “even if ceasefire, arms will be active”,
,
, “Yemen’s pro-Iranian Houthi rebels, who have been attacking ships passing through the Red Sea under the pretext of supporting Hamas in their war with Israel, have begun using ‘suicide drones’ in their attacks. The Houthis have been indiscriminately attacking ships passing through the Red Sea since November last year, vowing to block the sea until the Israeli military withdraws from Gaza. This is the first time they have used suicide drones in their attacks.”,
,
, “According to Reuters on the 12th local time, Yahya Saree, a spokesman for the Houthi rebels, announced that they had attacked the Greek-owned Liberian cargo ship ‘Tutor’ in the Red Sea on that day. He stated, ‘They carried out a military operation in the Red Sea using a suicide drone missile.’ Some pessimistic forecasts suggest that even if a ceasefire agreement is reached in the Gaza conflict, the Houthis may not give up control of the Red Sea. The UK Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) and UK security firm Ambrey reported that a 5-7m boat rammed into the rear of the Tutor as it passed through waters 67.7 nautical miles (about 125km) southwest of Yemen’s Hodeidah port, followed by being hit by an unidentified projectile.”,
,
, “According to UKMTO, there have been no reported casualties so far, but the engine room was significantly damaged and the ship lost control as water flooded in.”,
,
, “Suicide drones have previously sunk multiple vessels from the Russian Black Sea Fleet, despite Ukraine’s loss of control due to Russian incursions.”,
,
, “Although small in size, they are difficult to detect and carry a large amount of explosives, making them capable of hitting targets hundreds of kilometers away, posing a challenge to defense systems.”,
,
, “Meanwhile, Houthi rebels reportedly also attacked two Israeli cities on the same day. The Houthi rebels claimed to have carried out military operations targeting two Israeli cities, Ashdod and Haifa, in coordination with the Iraqi armed group Iraqi Islamic Resistance (IRI) operating in Iraq.”,
