CGTN

Yemen's Houthi group on Wednesday claimed responsibility for launching a missile attack on a U.S. ship in the Gulf of Aden after the U.S. re-designated Houthis as a terrorist organization.

The U.S. Central Command later said in a statement that the attack struck M/V Genco Picardy in the Gulf of Aden at approximately 8:30 pm (Sanaa time) Wednesday. There were no injuries but some damage was reported, it added.
