Saudi Firm Denies Houthis Targeted Tanker in Red Sea As US Military Reports Attacks In Red Sea An attack by Yemen’s Houthi rebels targeted a Panama-flagged oil tanker in the Red Sea on Monday, authorities said, as a nearby Saudi-flagged tanker ship also allegedly came under fire from the group.The attacks are believed to be the latest in the Iranian-backed rebels’ campaign that has disrupted the $1 trillion in goods that pass through the Red Sea each year over the Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip and has halted some aid shipments to conflict-ravaged Sudan and Yemen.The new attacks on oil tankers also come amid efforts to salvage the still-burning Sounion oil tanker earlier hit by the Houthis, seeking to head off the potential ecological disaster posed by its cargo of 1 million barrels of crude oil.00:00 INTRODUCTION01:20 US CENTCOM SAYS HOUTHIS ATTACKED SAUDI SHIP02:41 SAUDI FIRM DENIES SHIP TARGETED 04:21 OIL TANKER ATTACKED BY HOUTHIS STILL BURNING
