Houthi video shows Yemeni rebels planted bombs on oil tanker in Red Sea

Yemen's Houthi rebels release footage on Aug. 29, 2024 showing their fighters board and place explosives on a Greek-flagged tanker, setting off blasts that put the Red Sea at risk of a major oil spill. The vessel was abandoned earlier, after the Houthis repeatedly attacked it. In the video, the Iran-backed Houthis chanted their motto as the bombs detonated aboard the Sounion. 'God is the greatest; death to America; death to Israel; curse the Jews; victory to Islam.' The blasts capped the most-serious attack in weeks by the Houthis in their campaign disrupting the $1 trillion in goods that pass through the Red Sea each year over the Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip, as well as halting some aid shipments to conflict-ravaged Sudan and Yemen.
