'Owner from the Emirates, don't shoot!'
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:

[ColonelCassad] Message from a vessel in the Red Sea:

"Emirati owner, don't shoot."

The Houthis regularly receive such messages as part of Yemen's notification regime for passage off the country's coast. Many send such messages proactively to avoid attacks from Houthi controllers.

Those who do not respond to the warnings or silently proceed to Israeli ports are legitimate military targets.
….except for the illegitimacy of the entire enterprise, anyway. How is this different from priracy?
How this happens was clearly demonstrated last week by the example of two large dry cargo ships linked to Israel. After that, the flow of people wanting to prove to the Houthis that they have no ties to Israel increased sharply.
