According to Saria, Yemeni rebels will begin such actions if the Israeli army launches a military operation in Rafah. The Houthis also intend, in the event of such a development of the situation, to introduce “comprehensive sanctions” against all ships of companies related to supply and entry into Israeli ports, and will also prevent the passage of all ships of these companies through the area under their control, he added. As Regnum reported, on April 30, Saria announced an attack by the Houthis on two US Navy destroyers and the bulk carrier Cyclades in the Red Sea, as well as the container ship MSC Orion in the Indian Ocean. According to him, drones and other weapons sent to US Navy destroyers achieved their intended targets. Earlier in the day, the Royal Navy's Maritime Trade Coordination Center reported an attack on a merchant ship off the coast of Yemen. It was noted that none of the crew members were injured as a result of this. On April 30, the US military announced the destruction of a Houthi UAV in the Red Sea. According to US Central Command, the Houthis also attacked a commercial vessel with three anti-ship ballistic missiles and three drones. | ||
