Oil tanker explosion claimed by Houthis threatens Red Sea pollution - Financial Times

Quick Summary:

The ship was attacked in the middle of the Red Sea, 77 nautical miles west of the Houthi-controlled port of Hodeidah.

The Houthis have portrayed their campaign as an effort to support Palestinians in Gaza following Israel’s response to the Hamas attacks on Israel on October 7.

Since the group began its campaign against international shipping last November, it has sunk two ships — the Rubymar, attacked in February, and the Tutor, attacked in June.
