According to reports, a U.S. cargo ship was hit today by a missile off the coast of Yemen.
A security agent for the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations reported it as a “vessel hit from above by a missile” on its website.
As shared by independent journalist Matt Walsh on Twitter, “According to Ambrey, a British maritime risk company, a fire broke out on board the Marshall Islands-flagged, #US-owned bulk carrier.”
“The company “assessed the attack to have targeted US interests in response to US military strikes on Houthi military positions in Yemen” Ambrey said. With continued escalations of this nature, WW3 could break out at any moment. The United States will likely react now with overwhelming force. STAY SAFE AND BE PREPARED FOR ANYTHING!”

He also shared footage of a ship on fire as a placeholder, from a container ship that suffered an explosion a few years ago off the port of Sri Lanka, as there is no footage of the current event yet.

CNBC reports:
A U.S.-owned and operated container ship on Monday was struck by an anti-ship ballistic missile from Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen, according to the U.S. Central Command.
The U.S. said via social media that the attack took place at around 4 p.m. local time (8 a.m. ET) but the Marshall Islands-flagged vessel, known as the M/V Gibraltar Eagle, reported no injuries or significant damage and continued on with its journey.
The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations organization said authorities were investigating the incident, which occurred southeast of Aden in Yemen. The UKMTO said ships were “advised to transit with caution and report any suspicious activity.”

It comes shortly after the U.S. and U.K. launched joint strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen. The Iran-backed group has been attacking ships traversing the Red Sea since late last year, wreaking havoc on global trade and drawing international condemnation.
The militants claim their attacks in the Red Sea are in response to the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip.
At this point, all we can do is pray that this does not trigger another World War.
This would have NEVER happened if the REAL president was now in office. Bidiot will probably send the houtis ice cream cones and lollipops.
this president is a failure … period .
Video links not working.
“The United States will likely react now with overwhelming force”.
Not likely with limp wristed Biden in charge. Or who ever is instructing him.
You get rid of Iran, you get rid of these attacks.
