Missile strikes near ship in Yemeni port of Aden

The UK Maritime Trade Organisation said a missile was fired near a ship in the Yemeni port city of Aden.

The UKMTO said the missile struck the vessel "in close proximity" to the ship.

It added: "No damage to the vessel reported and crew reported safe."

This attack comes hours after two missiles targeted a ship southwest of the Yemeni port city of Hodeidah, according to the UKMTO.

US-led coalition forces intercepted one missile and the second missed the ship, UKMTO said.
