A maritime security source told Reuters news agency that he "believes the Houthis are holding six live crew members from the Eternity C vessel that they attacked in the Red Sea." Additionally, the European Union's task force in the region updated that four more crew members have been rescued, in addition to six who were rescued in recent days. Yesterday, the Houthis claimed responsibility for the first time for sinking the ship in an attack carried out on Monday, claiming it was on its way to the port of Eilat. Officials from the security company involved in the crew rescue operation reported yesterday that four people were killed in the attack. So far, 10 people have been rescued.
