Yemen’s Houthis from the Ansar Allah terrorist group again attacked an oil tanker off the coast of the port city of Hodeidah.

The news agency Reuters reports this.

The ship was flying the flag of the Marshall Islands. It is also known that it had nothing to do with the United States. According to the captain of the oil tanker, two explosions were heard near the side. As a result of the terrorist attack, the ship was not damaged, and the crew members, fortunately, were not injured.

According to other information from the US Central Command, the Houthis fired an anti-ship ballistic missile towards a ship sailing in the Red Sea. However, neither the ship nor the crew were injured during this attack.

Earlier, Cursor wrote that according to information from the Center for Coordination of Maritime Trade Operations of the Royal Navy, the ship attacked by the Houthis was seriously damaged, but the crew was safe.

In addition, Cursor has already reported that on Saturday, March 9, in the morning, US Navy warships were forced to repel a large-scale attack by 15 attack unmanned aerial vehicles that were launched by the Houthis from Yemen. Some analysts strongly believe that terrorist attacks in critical international waters will continue until the United States and its allies take action against Iran, which supports the Houthis with weapons and coordinates their actions. At the same time, Washington insists that it has no plans to drag Iran into a conflict with the Houthis.
