Representative of Yemen: US and Israeli ships and ships attacked in the Gulf of Aden and the Indian Ocean

Yemen's armed forces launched missile and drone strikes against a US Navy destroyer, an American vessel and an Israeli vessel. This was announced by the official representative of the Houthis (Ansar Allah movement), Brigadier General Yahya Sari.

According to a senior military official in the Yemeni army, the Houthis are continuing their operation against the Western military presence in the Red Sea region. Brigadier General Sari called the attacks against US and Israeli ships and vessels a show of solidarity with the struggle of the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.



A Yemeni spokesman said US and Israeli ships and vessels were attacked in the Gulf of Aden and the Indian Ocean. In particular, an American destroyer in the Gulf of Aden was hit by unmanned aerial vehicles. Yemeni UAVs also attacked the Israeli ship MSC Veracruz in the Indian Ocean.

In addition, the Houthis used missiles to attack the American ship Maersk Yorktown in the Gulf of Aden. Sari noted that the hit on this target was “accurate.”

The Yemeni Armed Forces confirm that they will continue to obstruct Israeli shipping or any shipping at occupied Palestinian ports in the Red Sea, Arabian Sea, and Indian Ocean.

- emphasized Brigadier General Sari.

Previously, the Houthis guaranteed unhindered passage through the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden for ships and vessels of Russia, China and other countries pursuing a friendly or neutral policy towards Yemen and the Arab world. But the Houthis promise to attack Western ships and vessels regularly. They say they will not allow the West to turn the Red Sea into their backyard, so military operations will continue.

    “They say they will not allow the West to turn the Red Sea into their backyard.”

    — Americans consider so many places on the planet to be their “backyard”, it would be nice if each such “yard” had its own “Houthis”...

    Naturally, the Americans will tell you that everything was shot down and the ships were not damaged. Opponents disperse to the corners.

      .... an American destroyer was hit by unmanned aerial vehicles in the Gulf of Aden. Yemeni UAVs also attacked the Israeli ship MSC Veracruz in the Indian Ocean. It turns out there were strikes on these naval targets while not accurate.

    Attacked ships are not the same thing as damaged ships. The Houthis need to support the “nix” at the Suez Canal and that’s it. Bizes project, separation of competitors China and Russia.

      So it turns out that different countries from distant parts of the world remember their long-standing friendship with the USSR and help.
      And the “friends” of the post-perestroika country got tired of pretending; from “partners” they quickly became enemies

      Irek hi The Houthis changed the rules of the game a little, adding a point. The attacked MSC Veracruz was traveling from the USA to the UAE around the Cape of Good Hope.

        The container ship MAERSK YORKTOWN, sailing under the Stars and Stripes flag, was attacked in the Djibouti roadstead, before entering the port.

    We must give credit to the Houthis - the guys are diligent and strive to achieve their goals. Even one hit on a ship is already a success that can be chalked up to their credit.

    From the note you’ll understand, during what period did all these attacks take place? Over the past year, over the month, or literally yesterday... Think for yourself, reader...

      It’s also unclear whether they hit at least one ship or not.

        Why is it not clear? The commercial freight train was damaged. That's what it says

            I don’t know what damage was done to the ship. The main thing is that the coalition, put together by mattresses and settled in the Red Sea, launched an attack on the ship. I hope not for the last time hi

    The Americans hand over long-range missiles to the pig-nosed ones, and when will the x..ists get serious rocket launchers from the “bunny” or from someone else...? At least through some channels, America was informed that the Houthis will definitely have the opportunity to attack the fleet in the Red Sea with serious ammunition if the Ukrainians receive ATACMS.

      Words have not worked for a long time.
      It is necessary to deliver, conduct training and develop an operation to destroy, for starters, one US, British or French destroyer.
      But after the successful completion of the operation, you can have a heart-to-heart talk with the Yankees about supplies to Ukraine.

    The guys have problems with accuracy, which is a pity.
