[Regnum] A "suspicious" approach to a vessel occurred near the Yemeni port of Mocha (Mocha). This was reported on June 30 by the UK Maritime Trade Office (UKMTO) of the country's Navy. “UKMTO received a report of an incident 13 nautical miles (about 24 kilometers – Editor’s note) south of Moha, Yemen,” the department informed. It is noted that the incident was classified as a “suspicious approach.” As Regnum reported, earlier on June 29, the Yemeni rebel movement Ansar Allah (Houthis) attacked four commercial ships in the Red and Mediterranean seas. According to Houthi military spokesman Yahya Sariya, the movement's fighters launched ballistic missile attacks on the oil tanker Delonix, and also attacked the Ioannis ship in the Red Sea and the Waler oil tanker and the Johannes Maersk ship in the Mediterranean Sea. Saria said on June 27 that the Houthis carried out a complex attack on the Seajoy in the Red Sea using drones, missiles and an unmanned boat. He added that the Houthis also launched several cruise missiles at a vital target in Israel's Haifa. |
