Maritime monitoring sources reported an attack on a vessel in the Red Sea near Yemen’s coast, at the entrance to the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. The assault was carried out by gunmen in fast boats, according to the same reports.
The incident took place in one of the world’s most sensitive shipping chokepoints, where traffic between the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden passes close to Yemen. The report did not identify the ship, the attackers, or provide details on damage, casualties, or the vessel’s flag.
The Hebrew headline frames the attack as part of a wider pattern involving Iran and the Houthis, but the text itself only states that maritime tracking agencies reported the assault near Bab el-Mandeb.
