’s Armed Forces have carried out new military operations targeting a ship named Tutor in the Red Sea, as well as a vital target at the Zionist ports of Ashdod and Haifa in the occupied Paleostinian territories, in support of the oppressed Paleostinian people and in retaliation to the crimes committed in the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...

"The naval, missile, and UAV forces of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a specific military operation targeting the ship "Tutor" in the Red Sea, using an unmanned surface boat, number of drones, and ballistic missiles," Yemen’s military front man Brigadier General Yahya Sare’e, said in a televised statement on Wednesday night.

"The operation led to the ship being seriously damaged and vulnerable to sinking, thanks to Allah. The ship was targeted because the company that owns the ship has violated the decision to ban entry into the ports of occupied Paleostine," Brigadier General Yahya Sare’e explained.

Furthermore, the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out two joint military operations alongside the Iraqi Islamic Resistance®, he added.

"The first operation used winged missiles that struck critical target in Ashdod, while the second used drones against a key target in Haifa. Both operations have successfully achieved their objectives," the military front man further explained

According to Sare’e, the Yemeni Armed Forces warn all companies of the consequences of dealing with the Israeli enemy and of the arrival of their ships to the ports of occupied Paleostine, lest they will be targeted in the area of operations of the Armed Forces, as previously announced.

Sailor missing as crew evacuated from cargo ship struck in Houthi missile attack

[IsraelTimes] Coal carrier unable to move after being targeted by Iran-backed rebels in Yemen; missing crew member believed trapped in damaged engine room

The crew of a Greek-owned vessel damaged in an attack by Yemeni Iran's Houthi sock puppets
...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to Americaâ„¢, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him...
murderous Moslems has been evacuated, and the abandoned ship is drifting in the Red Sea, the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations said on Friday.

One sailor from Tutor, the Liberia-flagged coal carrier, remains missing, officials in the Philippines said.

The attack near the Yemeni port of Hodeidah on Wednesday caused severe flooding and damage to the engine room and left Tutor unable to maneuver.

Iran-aligned Houthis grabbed credit for the missile attack on Tutor and another vessel, Verbena, in the Gulf of Aden, over the past days.

Tutor’s 22 crew members are mostly Filipino, Hans Cacdac, the Philippines’ Department of Migrant Workers secretary, told a presser in Manila. Philippine President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr said the country’s authorities were coordinating with the UKMTO to take the crew members to Djibouti and bring them home.

The missing crew member was believed to be trapped in the engine room, maritime sources said.

"We are still ... trying to account for the particular seafarer in that ship. We are praying we could find him," Cacdac said.

The ship’s Athens-based manager Evalend Shipping has not responded to Rooters’ requests for comment.

Tsavliris Salvage Group has been assigned to tow the ship, which is carrying 80,000 tons of coal, a source with knowledge of the matter told Rooters. The project will involve two vessels. The first is expected to reach Tutor on Monday morning and the second on Tuesday evening.

The Houthis’ air and sea assaults have disrupted global shipping, causing delays and costs to cascade through supply chains. At least 65 countries and major energy and shipping companies — including Shell SHEL.L, BP BP.L, Maersk MAERSKb.CO and Cosco — have been affected, according to a report by the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency.

INTERCARGO, which represents dry fat merchantman owners, urged states to enhance maritime security in the area.



Houthis strike cargo ship in Red Sea with cruise missiles, seriously wounding civilian

’s Houthi rebels launched two anti-ship cruise missiles and struck a commercial ship Thursday in the Gulf of Aden off Yemen, setting it on fire and severely wounding one civilian mariner, authorities said. The M/V Verbena was still ablaze and the mariner was flown by a US helicopter based on the USS Philippine Sea to another nearby ship for medical treatment, the US military’s Central Command said.

In a statement, Central Command said the Verbena is a Palauan-flagged, Ukrainian-owned and Polish-operated bulk cargo carrier that had docked in Malaysia and was on its way to Italia carrying wood. "The M/V Verbena reported damage and subsequent fires on board. The crew continues to fight the fire," the statement said.

Earlier Thursday, the British military’s United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations center said a vessel had been attacked and had caught fire. And the private security firm Ambrey said a merchant vessel made a radio distress call saying it had been struck by a missile.

The Houthis later claimed the attack on the Verbena, as well as attacks on two other ships in the Red Sea. Central Command said the Houthis had launched two ballistic missiles in the Red Sea that caused "no injuries or significant damage."

The UKMTO said one vessel earlier missed by the Houthis was hit by a "third projectile" that caused "minor damage." The vessel was able to remain underway, it said.

The attack on the Verbena followed the Houthis launching a boat-borne kaboom against a commercial ship in the Red Sea on Wednesday.

Central Command also said it destroyed a Houthi drone boat and two patrol boats in the Red Sea, as well as one airborne drone.
