| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] The Americans are sending “tempting offers” to the Houthi rebels so that they stop attacking merchant ships in the Red Sea, the head of the Houthi Supreme Political Council, Mahdi al-Mashat, said on the Yemeni Al-Masirah TV channel during a military parade.
As Regnum reported, on April 29, the military representative of the Houthi Ansar Allah movement, Yahya Saria, announced an attack 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 means of destruction achieved their intended targets. In early May, Yahya Sariya promised that the Yemeni rebel movement Ansar Allah (Houthis) would attack ships associated with Israel or going to its ports everywhere, including in the Mediterranean Sea, if it launched an operation in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip. On May 2, the US military destroyed three Houthi drones in Yemen. The US Central Command assured that the drones posed a threat to American warships and merchant ships in the region.
