An oil tanker is on fire in the Gulf of Aden, its operator says, after Houthis said they hit it with a missile.
US officials told the BBC’s US partner CBS the tanker was hit by an anti-ship ballistic missile and a naval ship was responding to its distress signal.
There were no injuries reported, the US officials said.
Houthi military spokesman Yaha Sarea said the group used “a number of appropriate naval missiles” and Friday’s strike was “direct”.
Mate Britain bombed Yemen first and actually killed people.
Sunak’s family owns Infosys which is heavily involved in the gas deal to steal Gaza’s Marine field. It’s pretty clear why Sunak is helping Israel here.
Right. They bombed Yemen for no reason. Couldn’t have anything to do with them firing at civilian ships.
Were you born yesterday? Because the rest of us have a functioning memory. The ships sole connection was the employer of the crew. It isn’t owned by the UK and it isn’t servicing either the UK or Israel. That makes this a terrorist attack. You went after civilians for your political cause.
Well done Houthis.
“The ship didn’t have relations to the UK! But now that it did, UK was justified for defending israel’s genocide!”.
OK dude
This has nothing to do with Israel. I’ve maintained that the entire time. And it’s still not a British ship. Are you going to support them murdering British tourists too? How far are you willing to support terrorism against civilians?
