    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    In a separate development, the US Central Command (CENTCOM) said that on Saturday "two Houthi anti-ship ballistic missiles were fired into international shipping lanes in the Southern Red Sea from Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen.

    Earlier, maritime security firm Ambrey said the vessel was linked to Israel, and was heading from Saudi Arabia to India.

    The incident took place 200 nautical miles south-west of the city of Veraval in India’s Gujarat state, according to United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO).

    National security spokesperson Adrienne Watson said it was “consistent with Iran’s long-term material support and encouragement of the Houthis’ destabilising actions in the region”.

    Later, an Iranian Revolutionary Guards commander warned it would force the closure of waterways other than the Red Sea if “America and its allies continue committing crimes” in Gaza.

    Brig Gen Mohammad Reza Naqdi said these could include the Mediterranean Sea and Strait of Gibraltar - but offered no details of how this would happen.
