Houthis damage oil tanker, shoot down US drone

The Iran-aligned group's military spokesman, Yahya Saree, said in his latest televised video address early on Saturday that "British oil ship Andromeda Star" was targeted in the Red Sea with naval missiles and was directly hit.

The vessel was recently sold to a company registered in the Seychelles, Reuters reported. "MV Andromeda Star reports minor damage, but is continuing its voyage,"
