The Houthis claim to have targeted a container ship in the fleet of AP Moller-Maersk off the coast of Oman.
The Yemeni group’s military arm said it carried out an operation that took aim at the 4,957-teu Megalopolis (built 2013), owned by US-listed tonnage provider Costamare.
The shipowner and Maersk could not be immediately reached for confirmation of the incident.
