Yemeni Ansarullah Movement’s military spokesman announced: "We targeted the ship 'Eternity C' that was heading towards the occupied port of “Umm al-Rishrash.”

Why it matters:

Over the past few months, attacking ships heading towards the occupied territories has become a strategy for the Yemeni army. The strategy is a deterrent one to stop Israeli genocidal war on Gaza. 

 

The bigger picture:

In addition to firing missiles and drones at Israel, the Yemeni army has managed to inflict a major blow on the regime’s trade by targeting ships heading towards Israel.

 

What he's saying:

 

  • We targeted the ship 'Eternity Sea' with a boat and six missiles while it was heading toward the port of Umm Rashrash (Eilat) in occupied Palestine.
     
  • With this operation, the mentioned ship was completely sunk, and this has been documented with sound and video.
     
  • The targeting of this ship took place after the Yemeni Navy’s calls and warnings were ignored.
     
  • We will continue our operations until the Israeli aggression against Gaza stops and the blockade is lifted.
