HNLMS Karel Doorman

With several fires still burning on the Greek-flagged Sounion oil tanker since the attack by Iranian pro-Iranian Houthi rebels in the Red Sea on August 21, Greece is taking a leading role in the effort to tow it to prevent an environmental disaster.

A video published on Monday shows the downing of a Houthi drone by the Psara frigate in the Red Sea on Sunday.

The video was taken by the Dutch frigate Karel Doorman and was published by the Dutch Ministry of Defense. It shows the Houti drone flying close to the sea surface, before eventually crashing. It is not clear if it was hit by Psara's gun or its anti-drone jamming system.
