Yemen's Houthis Bar All Ships Sailing to Israel from Red Sea
(Reuters) Mohammed Alghobari - Yemen's Houthis said Saturday they would target all ships heading to Israel, regardless of their nationality. A Houthi military spokesperson said all ships sailing to Israeli ports are banned from the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea. The Houthis have attacked and seized several Israeli-linked ships in the Red Sea and its Bab al-Mandab strait in a show of support for the Palestinians. Israel said attacks on ships was an "Iranian act of terrorism" with consequences for international maritime security.
