Houthi Militants Attack US-Listed Ship With “Suitable Naval Missiles” In Red Sea
Yemen’s Houthis have reportedly claimed on Monday that they have attacked a US vessel in the waters of the Red Sea. Houthi spokesperson Yahya Saree said that the Star Iris vessel was reportedly targeted with naval missiles, resulting in some direct hits.
The operation reflects a victory for the cause of the Palestinians. Also, as a response to the British-US aggression against the country, he mentioned in a statement.
There was no comment from the US right away on this Houthi claim. The UK Maritime Trade Operations (abbreviated the UKMTO) agency earlier mentioned that it received a report of minor damages from a missile attack on a vessel about 40 nm south of the Al-Mukha based in Yemen. The ship and crew members are safe.
It added that the vessel is now headed toward the upcoming port of call. The Houthis have been targeting cargo vessels in the Red Sea owned/operated by Israeli firms or transporting goods from and to Israel in solidarity with Gaza, which has come under the terrifying Israeli onslaught that started on October 7.
With tensions going on escalating owing to the US as well as the UK’s joint airstrikes launched against Houthis in Yemen, the group further mentioned that it considered the American and British vessels to be legitimate military targets.
