I’m so sick of hearing western journalists refer to the legitimate Yemeni government as “Iranian backed Houthi rebels”

“All crew members are unhurt and safe,” Belsnes said. “The vessel is now proceeding to a safe port.”

That's good no one was hurt, but are these missiles like, the warning missiles? Can you even sink a ship with this kind of missile?

Companies are increasingly avoiding using this route when shipping stuff to Israel. Eilat port revenue has dropped 80% since the attacks started.
