The United Arab Emirates successfully rescued all 22 crew members of the British-flagged commercial ship Magic Seas after it was attacked in the Red Sea, reportedly by Yemen's Houthi forces. The attack damaged the ship's structure and forced the crew to abandon it. The UAE coordinated the rescue operation with international authorities, deploying the vessel Sven Prism to recover the crew. Separately, maritime security firms have launched a mission to rescue six seafarers believed to be held captive by the Houthis after they attacked and sank a Greek-operated ship in the Red Sea. The Houthis have intensified their attacks on commercial vessels in the region, sinking two ships within days, killing at least three sailors, and capturing others. These assaults have raised insurance costs for commercial shipping in the area and heightened tensions, as no Western naval forces were nearby to provide assistance during the incidents. Meanwhile, Israel is exploring diplomatic scenarios to halt Houthi missile attacks originating from Yemen, considering agreements with Hamas or Iran that would include a ceasefire from Yemen. Israel has also urged the United States to resume strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen amid these developments. The escalation of Houthi attacks in the Red Sea has increased risks for international maritime traffic and drawn concern from the global shipping industry.
