Videos Show Houthi Rebels Sinking Cargo Ships in Back-to-Back Strikes

YEMEN, JUL 10 – Houthi rebels escalated attacks on Red Sea shipping lanes, sinking two cargo ships and kidnapping survivors amid regional conflict, with over 100 attacks since November 2023, officials said.

  • In early July, Houthi rebels sank two cargo ships, Magic Seas and Eternity C, in the southern Red Sea on July 6 and 7, escalating maritime attacks.
  • Driven by solidarity with Gaza, Houthi rebels continue attacking Israel, sinking two ships in a week despite US agreements to cease maritime operations.
  • Evidence confirms Houthi use of sea drones, armed skiffs, and rocket-propelled grenades, killing four crew and rescuing ten, illustrating their evolving naval tactics.
  • In early July, Houthi rebels sank two cargo ships in the Red Sea, prompting calls for increased maritime security and risk reassessment, amid ongoing regional tensions.
  • More broadly, rising oil prices since June 23 and the potential threat to $1 trillion in Red Sea trade underscore the urgent need for diplomatic solutions, according to IMO officials.
