Iran-backed Houthis sink British-owned ship 'Rubymar' following Red Sea missile strike

A British owned cargo ship, the Rubymar, has now sunk after it was hit by two missiles fired by Yemen-based Houthi rebels last month. The Rubymar was in the Gulf of Aden near the Bab al-Mandab Strait when it was struck. The ship sank in the Red Sea on Friday night and was carrying more than 41,000 tons of fertilizer when it came under attack. All its 24 crew have been rescued, but the damage to the freighter caused an 18-mile oil slick. Houthi attacks have prompted vessels to divert onto the longer, more expensive routes around Southern Africa. The Rubymar is the first ship to have been sunk by the Iran-backed rebels in Yemen since they began targeting vessels in the Red Sea in November. #iran #houthis #british Daily Mail Homepage: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/ Daily Mail Facebook:   / dailymail   Daily Mail IG:   / dailymail   Daily Mail Snap:   / 8392137033   Daily Mail Twitter:   / mailonline   Daily Mail Pinterest: https://pinterest.co.uk/dailymail Iran-backed Houthis sink British-owned ship 'Rubymar' following Red Sea missile strike Get the free Daily Mail mobile app: https://dailymail.co.uk/mobile
