At least four killed and 'many' kidnapped after Houthi rebels sink ship

At least four people have been killed and many other crew kidnapped after Houthi rebels sank a cargo ship in the Red Sea, authorities say.

Eternity C was first attacked on Monday afternoon with drones and rocket-propelled grenades fired from speedboats. The European Union naval mission in the area said six people had been rescued after spending more than a day in the sea.

However, the fate of 15 of the crew is currently unknown. In total, 22 crew - mostly Filipinos - were on board, as well as a three-member security team.

The ship finally sank on Wednesday after being attacked over two days. The US embassy in Yemen posted on X that several survivors had been kidnapped.

"After killing their shipmates, sinking their ship, and hampering rescue efforts, the Houthi terrorists have kidnapped many surviving crew members of the Eternity C," the embassy said. "We call for their immediate and unconditional safe release.

The Houthis continue to show the world why the United States was right to label them a terrorist organisation." A Houthi spokesperson claimed the Yemeni navy had rescued "a number of the ship's crew.
