A Houthi missile attack killed three seafarers on a Red Sea merchant ship on Wednesday, US Central Command said, the first fatalities reported since the Iran-aligned Yemeni group began strikes against shipping in one of the world's busiest trade lanes. The Houthis claimed responsibility for the attack, which set the Greek-owned, Barbados-flagged ship True Confidence ablaze around 50 nautical miles off the coast of Yemen's port of Aden. Yinka Oyetade has more information in this video report.
