Bewaffneten Sicherheitskräften an Bord des unter der Flagge Liberias laufenden Containerschiffes Pumba (54.000 BRZ), auf dem Weg von Jeddah nach Malaysia, gelang es offenbar, eine Kamikaze-Drohne der Houthi im letzten Moment zu zerstören:

Ship Security Team Appears To Detonate Explosive-Laden Houthi Drone Boat With Gunfire

An embarked security team fired about two dozen shots at the approaching Houthi drone boat, with it exploding just before it could cause any damage. [...]

As the Houthi uncrewed surface vessel (USV) steadily approached the Liberian-flagged container ship Pumba in the Red Sea, its security crew fired about two dozen shots in about 14 seconds from their Steyr rifles. Video emerging from that encounter showed after the last of those shots, the USV exploded. The scenario, which took place July 20 in the Red Sea, offers a textbook example of how to defeat these threats, a maritime security expert told us.
