Final crowd probability
The crowd was 64% sure, and they nailed it.
Why: Yes. Within the window, Yemen’s Houthi forces attacked commercial vessels in the Red Sea/Gulf of Aden. On July 28, 2026, the Houthis claimed a ballistic missile attack on the Saudi oil/chemical tanker NCC Ghazal in the Red Sea; UKMTO reported a nearby explosion with the crew safe. Independent maritime intelligence (Windward) and analysis (Long War Journal) also list NCC Ghazal among Saudi tankers struck in late July. Further, on August 5, 2026, the Houthis claimed additional strikes on Saudi tankers in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, with UKMTO reporting an explosion heard by a tanker in the Gulf of Aden the same day, reinforcing that such Houthi attacks occurred during the specified period.
