US NAVY INTERCEPTS MASSIVE HOUTHI DRONE SWARM OFF BAB EL-MANDEBU.S. Navy guided-missile destroyers operating under Operation Prosperity Guardian successfully intercepted and destroyed a massive swarm of 14 one-way attack drones launched by Houthi forces toward commercial shipping lanes in the southern Red Sea. While the interception prevented direct hits on transiting containerships, the attack underscores severe ongoing threats, reinforcing why major container lines remain committed to 100% Cape of Good Hope detours.

SAUDI COALITION INTERCEPTS MISSILE SALVO OVER YANBU PORT AS RED SEA ATTACKS MOUNTThe Saudi-led coalition released operational footage confirming the interception of a ballistic missile launched toward the Red Sea port city of Yanbu, alongside two cruise missiles over the Red Sea and three attack drones. The aerial barrage follows retaliatory coalition strikes against Houthi weapons-smuggling networks along Yemen's Red Sea coast. With naval escort assets under Operation Aspides severely overstretched, major container mainlines continue maintaining 100% Cape of Good Hope detours.
