Two Missiles, One Target: Houthis’ Red Sea Assault, Panama-Flagged Anadolu S Hit Twice in Hours

Tensions in the Red Sea escalated dramatically as Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels targeted the Panama-flagged bulk carrier Anadolu S with two missile strikes in a matter of hours.

Houthi Leader Blasts U.S-Israeli Plot, Warns of Strikes on U.S Warships; Calls for Uprising in Yemen

In a fiery televised address, Yemen's Ansarullah leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi accused the U.S. of complicity in Israel's ongoing military actions in Gaza and Lebanon, claiming American-made weapons are fueling a broader campaign of extermination in West Asia.
