A Greek-owned ship in the Red Sea was attacked by an unmanned surface vessel, causing it to take on water and lose control. The UK Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) reported that the crew was not in command of the ship after the attack. Iran-backed Houthi rebels claimed responsibility for the incident.

    1. The impact of the [unmanned surface vessel] caused severe flooding and damage to the engine room.
    2. This continued malign and reckless behavior by the Iranian-backed Houthis threatens regional stability and endangers the lives of mariners across the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.
