Rescuers have pulled four survivors, including three crew members and a security guard, from the Red Sea following an attack by Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels on the Greek-operated cargo ship Eternity C.
The vessel was sunk during the assault, with several crew members still unaccounted for.
The incident marks a significant escalation in Houthi aggression in the region, prompting international concern over maritime security and the safety of commercial shipping routes.
