Reports of a missile striking a Greek vessel in the Red Sea Source bbc.com Written by Katherine Armstrong News from BBC According to marine security company Ambrey, a missile struck a Greek-owned, Malta-flagged ship off the coast of Yemen in the Red Sea. It is likely to be the third incident in a 24-hour period involving the bulk carrier, Zografia. The incident on Tuesday occurs after the US military declared that, during an operation last week, it had recovered weapons provided by Iran and headed for the Houthis. In the meantime, further targets in Yemen under Houthi control have been struck by US strikes. An official informed CBS, the US partner of the BBC, that last night the US carried out further strikes against Houthi sites. On January 11, the US and UK initiated a series of airstrikes against many Houthi targets in response to the group's attacks on Red Sea shipping, which was supported by Iran.
