A series of maritime incidents involving explosions and a missile strike near Yemen have been reported by the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) and other sources. The first incident occurred 50 nautical miles southeast of the port of Aden, where a vessel reported an explosion at a distance but sustained no damage, and the crew was reported safe. Another report by UKMTO mentioned an incident 50 nautical miles southwest of al Hodeidah, Yemen. Subsequently, a merchant vessel reported being hit by a missile 76 nautical miles west of Hodeidah, sustaining damage. Additionally, UKMTO received a report of an incident 65NM west of Al Hudaydah, with an explosion a distance off the vessel's starboard beam, resulting in no damage and the crew being safe. This attack in the Red Sea has been attributed to Yemen's Houthi rebels, who have threatened to expand their attacks on shipping amid Israel's ongoing war on Hamas in the Gaza Strip. Despite these incidents, the crews involved have been reported safe, and the vessels are proceeding to their next ports of call.
