KONTAN.CO.ID - COPENHAGEN/DUBAI, Dec 31 (Reuters) - Iranian-backed Houthi militants attacked a Maersk MAERSKb.CO container vessel with missiles and small boats, prompting the company to pause all sailing through the Red Sea for 48 hours, Maersk said on Sunday.

The crew of the Maersk Hangzhou crew was safe and there was no indication of fire onboard the vessel, which was fully maneuverable and continued its journey north to Port Suez, Maersk said.
