Yemen's Iranian-backed Houthi militia released a video showing a vessel being hit by a missile and bursting into flames on Tuesday. 

According to maritime security agencies and sources monitoring the area, two vessels sustained damage after being hit with missiles and a sea drone off Yemen's Red Sea port of Hodeidah. Both vessels reported that their crews were safe.

Reuters was able to verify the location of the oil tanker Cordelia Moon through the vessels Automatic Identification System (AIS). The identity of the vessel was verified by matching file imagery. The date was verified through corroborating reports.

Houthis have launched attacks on international shipping near Yemen since last November in solidarity with Palestinians in the war between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
