Yemen's Houthi rebels hijack Israeli-linked ship in the Red Sea and take 25 crew members hostage
Yemen's Houthi rebels captured an Israeli-linked cargo ship in a critical Red Sea commercial route Sunday and kidnapped its 25 crew members, authorities said, increasing worries that regional tensions heightened by the Israel-Hamas conflict were spilling over into the sea.
The Houthi rebels, backed by Iran, said they hijacked the ship because of its ties to Israel and would continue to attack ships in international seas affiliated to or controlled by Israelis until Israel's assault against Gaza's Hamas rulers ended.
