Three crew members have been killed in a Houthi missile strike on a cargo ship off southern Yemen, its owners and the US have said.
These are the first deaths caused by the group's attacks on merchant vessels.
The Barbados-flagged True Confidence was abandoned after Wednesday's attack, which inflicted significant damage.
The Houthis say their attacks are in support of the Palestinians in the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
