Search begins for survivors of Red Sea ship attack
Rescuers launched a search on Wednesday for survivors of a Liberian-flagged cargo ship that came under attack from Yemen’s Houthi rebels in the Red Sea, authorities said. At least three mariners were killed and two were wounded. The attack on the Greek-owned Eternity C follows the Iranian-backed Houthis attacking another vessel — bulk carrier Magic Seas — on Sunday in the Red Sea, which they subsequently sank.
