EU's naval mission in the Red Sea repels 11 Houthi attacks since February.
The EU's naval mission in the Red Sea, led by Rear Admiral Vasilios Gryparis, has repelled 11 attacks by Houthi rebels since its launch in February. The Iran-backed Houthi rebels have targeted shipping in the Red Sea since November, disrupting maritime trade to Egypt and Europe. The EU mission aims to maintain maritime security in the high-risk region, but currently involves only four warships and focuses on defending civilian vessels without participating in military strikes.
