Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] Yemen's Houthis attacked a US Navy destroyer and two commercial vessels, Captain Paris and Happy Condor, in the Red Sea. This was announced on Sunday, June 16, by the military representative of the Ansar Allah movement, Yahya Saria. According to him, a group of militants fired ballistic missiles at the American destroyer. The Houthis attacked the Captain Paris oil tanker and an LNG tanker with anti-ship missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles. Reuters, citing the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Office (UKMTO), reported that on Sunday morning, one of the merchant ships, 40 seas south of the Yemeni city of Al-Mukha, reported two explosions nearby. UKMTO is currently unable to confirm whether commercial vessels were damaged as a result of the reported attack. As Regnum reported, on June 13, the US Central Command said that the Houthis attacked the commercial ship Verbena, owned by Ukraine and flying the flag of Palau, with two anti-ship missiles. On Saturday, the crew of the cargo ship sent a distress signal, which was responded to by the Anna Meta, whose sailors evacuated the crew of the Verbena. On the same day, the military representative of the Houthi Ansar Allah movement, Yahya Saria, reported that the attacked ship Verbena sank in the Gulf of Aden 98 nautical miles east of Yemen's Aden. This information was also confirmed by UKMTO. At the same time, CENTCOM issued a statement that the distress signal from Verbena was allegedly ignored by the Iranian frigate Jamaran, which was then eight nautical miles from the Ukrainian cargo ship. |

#6 They must have filed the plan for this strike with the Iranians ahead of time. These attacks are as fruitful and effective as a Joe Biden Celebrity Jeopardy appearance. Just give Eric Prince a budget and let him take care of the problem. If that includes seizing Joy Bahar’s ugly sister Chah, all the better. I don’t want the details. |
