Yemen's Houthis claim responsibility for striking Norwegian tanker Strand in latest attack
Fox News
Yemen's Houthi movement struck a Norwegian oil and chemical tanker with a rocket on Monday in its latest attack to protest Israel's military operations in Gaza.
He vowed that the Houthis would continue blocking ships heading to Israeli ports until Israel allows the entry of food and medical aid into the Gaza Strip - more than 1,000 miles from the Houthi seat of power in Sanaa. Michael Dorgan is a writer for Fox News Digital and Fox Business.

The ship, a Norwegian-owned-and-operated vessel called Strinda, was struck on Monday night as it traveled near the Bab al-Mandab strait, a sea lane through which much of the world's oil is shipped.
