Houthi rebels continue to throw missiles at commercial ships despite intense US and UK strikes designed to weaken them

• The Houthis hit a US-owned container vessel with an anti-ship ballistic missile on Monday. 
• It's the latest attack by the Iran-backed rebels since the US and UK hit them with strikes. 
• The strikes, which began late last week, were meant to degrade the Houthis' capabilities.

The Houthis fired multiple missiles into key waterways off the coast of Yemen, hitting a US-owned vessel on Monday, as the Iran-backed rebels continue to target key shipping lanes.
