Houthis claim attack on cargo ship, 'it's American'
The spokesman for the Houthi army, Yahya Sarie, yesterday evening claimed responsibility for the attack against a merchant ship off the coast of Yemen, claiming that it was a US cargo ship.
The international media reported it.
"We carried out a military operation using several naval missiles against the American merchant ship 'KOI' which was on its way to Israel. The ship was hit," Sarie said.
"We continue to help the Palestinian people by preventing ships from reaching Israel until humanitarian aid enters the Gaza Strip," he added.
