Yemen's Houthi rebels release crew of commercial vessel seized in Red Sea in November 2023

SeattlePI.com Wednesday, 22 January 2025 ()
Yemen’s Houthi rebels have released the crew of the Galaxy Leader, a vehicle carrier seized in November 2023 at the start of their attacks on shipping in the Red Sea corridor over the Israel-Hamas war. The rebels said Wednesday they released the sailors after mediation by Oman. The crew of 25 included mariners from the Philippines, Bulgaria, Romania, Ukraine and Mexico. The Iran-backed Houthi rebels said they hijacked the ship over its connection to Israel. On Monday, the Houthis signaled they now will limit their attacks in the corridor to only Israeli-affiliated ships after the Gaza ceasefire but warned wider assaults could resume if needed.
