The US military conducted fresh strikes in Yemen on Tuesday, targeting anti-ship ballistic missiles in a region controlled by Houthi rebels.

The attack by the U.S came as the Houthis reportedly struck a Maltese-flagged bulk carrier during the skirmish and a day after Houthi forces hit the U.S.-owned and operated dry bulk ship Gibraltar Eagle with an anti-ship ballistic missile. #USMilitary #YemenStrikes #HouthiRebels #RedSeaAttacks #SecurityAlert #ZografiaIncident #NavalMissiles #SuezCanalImpact #GlobalShipping #MaritimeSecurity #MiddleEastTensions #MissileAttack #HouthiThreat #RedSeaNavigation #ShippingDisruptions #SpeciallyDesignatedGlobalTerrorists #YemenConflict #RegionalSecurity #BidenAdministration #GlobalTradeImpact ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.101~
