The US Navy ship Gravely destroyed two anti-ship ballistic missiles in the Red Sea, RIA Novosti reports citing a statement by the US Central Command (CENTCOM).
Earlier it was reported that the Ansar Allah movement (Houthis) ruling in northern Yemen attacked the commercial ship Hangzhou, owned by Maersk, with missiles. The Singapore-flagged vessel was sailing in the southern Red Sea when it was attacked and requested assistance. The ship is reportedly able to move independently, but information about the casualties has not been disclosed.
A statement from US Central Command said the attack was the 23rd since September 19.
Previously, the Ansar Allah movement (Houthis) ruling in northern Yemen announced that it would attack any ships associated with Israel.
