US-owned ship struck by missile near Yemen, Defense Department says
US Central Command identified the vessel as the M/V Gibraltar Eagle, owned by a Connecticut-based shipping company

A U.S.-owned ship in the Gulf of Aden was hit by a missile fired from Yemen on Monday, U.S. officials said.

The U.S. Central Command identified the vessel as the M/V Gibraltar Eagle, a Marshall Islands-flagged bulk carrier. The ship is owned by Eagle Bulk, a Stamford, Connecticut-based shipping firm.

"On Jan. 15 at approximately 4 p.m. (Sanaa time), Iranian-backed Houthi militants fired an anti-ship ballistic missile from Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen and struck the M/V Gibraltar Eagle, a Marshall Islands-flagged, U.S.-owned and operated container ship," U.S. Central Command said on X. According to the statement, there were no reported injuries or significant damage. The vessel is continuing its journey.

This is the 30th attack on commercial vessels by the Houthi's since November 19th.
The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO), which oversees Mideast waters, also confirmed Monday's attack, saying it happened some 110 miles southeast of Aden.

UKMTO has received a report of an incident 95NM South East of Aden, Yemen. Master reports port side of vessel hit from above by a missile."

So they are still attacking the shipping in the Red Sea.  The Wogs need another whiff of the grape...

This is why there should have been repeated attacks on the Houthi pirates. Shooting down 99% of their missiles and drones means they have successes and will continue. And Iran will continue providing the missiles, etc., they want.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

It's like Gaza:  They won't stop attacking shipping in the Red Sea (and the Gulf of Aman) until enough Houties are killed.  Then maybe the government of Yemen can get a handle on the rebels.
