International Desk: There has been another attack on a commercial ship off the coast of Yemen. The ship suffered minor damage. The United Kingdom Trade Operations Agency and British maritime security firm Ambray reported on Tuesday (February 6). It is said that missiles were fired at the ship.

The missile does little damage when it crosses the ship's deck. Ambrey said the Barbados-flagged vessel was a British company while passing through the east coast of the Red Sea. Since November last year, Yemen's Houthis began attacking any ship bound for Israel in the Red Sea.

They claim that the attacks will continue until a cease-fire is implemented in Gaza. However, in response to this attack by the Houthis, the US coalition is often attacking Yemen.

On February 3, the United States and the United Kingdom struck 36 targets in at least 13 locations of the Houthi rebels in Yemen. Earlier, the US-led coalition attacked this Yemeni group several times.
