An oil tanker is on fire in the Gulf of Aden, its operator says, after Houthis said they hit it with a missile.

US officials told the BBC’s US partner CBS the tanker was hit by an anti-ship ballistic missile and a naval ship was responding to its distress signal.

There were no injuries reported, the US officials said.

Houthi military spokesman Yaha Sarea said the group used “a number of appropriate naval missiles” and Friday’s strike was “direct”.

    Israel has killed 2.5 times as many civilians as Russia in 1/4 the time on a population 25 times smaller.

    Israel is like 10000% more genocidal than Russia.

    And no Russia is not good, and Ukraine has the right to defend itself.
