The Iran-backed Houthi fighter group launched two anti-ship ballistic missiles at a US-owned tanker ship late that hit the water near the vessel but caused no injuries or damage, the US military has said according to Reuters.
The incident, the latest amid growing tensions in the Red Sea that have disrupted global trade and raised fears of supply bottlenecks, took place around 1800 GMT, according to a US Central Command post on X, formerly called Twitter.
