# Houthi Rebels: Targeting Commercial Ship with Missiles in the Red Sea

The Yemeni armed forces "Houthis" announced that they carried out an "operation targeting the commercial ship 'MSC UNITED' with suitable naval missiles." They added, "The operation to target the ship came after its crew rejected three calls from the naval forces, as well as repeated warning messages." They indicated that they executed "a military operation using several drones against military targets in the Umm al-Rashrash area and other areas in occupied Palestine." Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) stated that the container ship United was attacked while crossing the Red Sea on Tuesday. The company said in a statement, "All crew members are fine, and no injuries have been reported. A comprehensive assessment of the ship is underway." The ship was en route from Saudi Arabia to Pakistan.
