UK maritime body gets report of incident 40 nautical miles south of al Mukha in Yemen

The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) says it has received a report of an incident 40 nautical miles south of al Mukha in Yemen.

Authorities are investigating, UKMTO adds, without giving further details.

Since November, the Iran-backed Houthi rebels have launched scores of drone and missile strikes targeting ships in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden, in a campaign they say is intended to signal solidarity with Palestinians over the Israel-Hamas war.
