The US revealed on Tuesday the most intense Yemeni attack in the Red Sea.
Exclusive – Al-Khabar Al-Yemeni:
The US Central Command reported in a statement that a large-scale attack targeted the cargo ship “Cyclades.”
The ship was targeted with three ballistic missiles and three drones.
The US command did not mention intercepting any of these missiles or drones, indicating the failure of rescue attempts.
Yemeni Armed Forces Spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree confirmed the targeting of the ship, which America claims is operated by Greece and flies the Maltese flag.
The targeting of the ship came as a result of its attempt to defraud the Yemeni forces by claiming that it was not heading to Israeli ports.
The targeting of the ship was part of a wide operation that also targeted American battleships.
According to the US statement, the battleships “USS Philippine Sea” and “USS Laboon” were subjected to an aerial attack, claiming that a drone was intercepted.
According to Brigadier General Saree, the operation also targeted a ship in the Indian Ocean.
The operation is considered the largest in terms of quantity and quality since the start of Yemeni operations in November last year.
