On Sunday, British maritime security firm Ambrey reported an attack on a Belize-flagged, UK-registered, and Lebanese-operated open hatch general cargo ship in the Bab al-Mandab Strait. The ship, en route from Khor Fakkan, UAE, to Varna, Bulgaria, was heading north when the incident occurred. According to Ambrey, the vessel briefly slowed and changed course, contacting the Djiboutian Navy before returning to its original course and speed. The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) received a report of the incident 35 nautical miles south of Yemen's Al Mukha. Yemen's Houthi group, citing solidarity with Palestinians amid the Israel-Hamas conflict, has been launching drone and missile attacks on international commercial shipping in the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab Strait since mid-November
