Rescuers launched a search Wednesday for survivors of a Liberian-flagged cargo ship that came under attack from Yemen's Houthi rebels in the Red Sea, authorities said. At least three mariners were killed and two were wounded.

Cargo ship Eternity C reportedly sank in the Red Sea after Houthi attacks, with four members reported dead and several missing as rescue and relief efforts continue.

Two crew members of a Liberian-flagged cargo ship have been killed in an attack in the Red Sea off the coast of Yemen, Liberia says. A Liberian representative to the International Maritime Organization (IMO) said the Eternity C was "attacked horribly... causing the death of two seafarers".
