Yemen’s Armed Forces have seized an Israeli ship and detained dozens of its crew members in the Red Sea following warnings by the Yemeni Ansarullah resistance movement that the popular force will target any Israeli ship crossing the country’s territorial waters.
Lebanon’s Arabic-language al-Mayadeen television news network reported on Sunday that the Yemeni naval forces “succeeded in detaining an Israeli ship in the depths of the Red Sea.”
52 people who were on board the ship were arrested, the report said.
The news network said the ship’s crew and those on board are currently under investigation and their nationalities are being verified by the relevant Yemeni agencies.
