Britain’s Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) agency received reports of an incident involving a suspected drone over the Red Sea west of the Yemeni port of Hodeidah on Wednesday and warned vessels transiting the area to exercise caution, Reuters reported.
There were no further details about the reported incident, which follows a series of attacks in Middle Eastern waters since war broke out between Israel and the Palestinian Resistance movemnt Hamas on Oct. 7.
The Yemeni armed forces said last Sunday that they had targeted two more Israeli ships in the Red Sea.
Also last month on November 19, the Yemeni army naval forces boarded a commercial ship believed to be ultimately owned by a major Israeli businessman with links to the Tel Aviv regime.
