A large cargo ship called Magic Seas was sailing through the Red Sea on July 6, 2025, when it was suddenly attacked. Armed groups used machine guns, rocket-propelled grenades, small boat drones, and even sea drones to strike the ship. These attacks came without warning.
The crew of 19 sailors and three guards quickly realized the ship was damaged, caught fire, and started taking on water. To stay safe, they had no choice but to abandon the ship. They climbed into lifeboats and were later rescued by a nearby vessel. Thankfully, none of the crew members was seriously injured
Houthi Group Likely Behind the Attack
Experts believe the Houthi rebels from Yemen carried out the attack. They have used these types of weapons before. Though the Houthis didn’t claim this strike yet, the attack looks like their earlier ones.
Not long after, another ship nearby heard their call for help. It came to their rescue and picked them up from the water. Everyone was scared, but they were all safe. No one died, and no one was seriously hurt. For the crew, this was a moment they would never forget. They were thankful to be alive after such a frightening night.This could be their first major strike on a ship in months. If confirmed, it shows they still want to cause trouble in busy sea routes.

Red Sea Is Important for the World
The Red Sea is one of the world’s busiest water routes. Many big ships carry goods like food, fuel, and cars through this path. If more attacks happen here, it could hurt trade and raise prices around the world.
Many ships have already stopped using this route. They now sail a longer way around Africa. This costs more time and money .Many ships are now avoiding the Red Sea. Instead, they are choosing longer routes that go around Africa. This change takes more time and costs more money. When it takes longer and costs more to move goods, prices in shops can go up. Even people far from the sea, in different countries, may feel the effects.
Israel Responds with Airstrikes
Just hours after the ship attack, Israel launched airstrikes in Yemen. They hit ports and a power station in areas controlled by the Houthis. Israel said they acted to stop future attacks.
They also attacked a ship the Houthis had captured earlier. Israel warned that they will keep defending their country and stop weapons from reaching the Houthis .Israeli officials said they want to stop more attacks and protect their people. They also want to make it harder for the Houthis to get weapons, especially from countries like Iran. These actions show that Israel will respond quickly to any threat in the region.
Bigger Conflict May Be Growing
The fight between Israel and the Houthis is not just about one ship. This could become a bigger problem. If more groups join in, it could turn into a large regional conflict.
Countries like the United States, United Kingdom, and many from Europe are watching closely. They are worried that the fighting could spread and cause harm to trade, travel, and safety. Some leaders are calling for peace and talks, but for now, there seems to be no end in sight.
