[NY Post] Who oh who could it be?
An Israeli cargo ship was struck by an unidentified weapon Saturday in the Indian Ocean, according to reports.
The Hyperion Two sustained only minor damage and there were no casualties in the attack, which Israeli defense forces say may have been ordered by Iran, according to a report in the Israeli daily Haaretz.
The ship was not flying an Israeli flag. A Hezbollah-affiliated network said that a fire broke out on the ship after the attack.
The incident occurred after the ship left the port of Jedda in Saudi Arabia, en route to the United Arab Emirates.
No one has claimed responsibility for the attack, and there was no official statement from Israel. The attack comes on the heels of increased tensions at sea between Israel and Iran, the newspaper reported.
A fire broke out on Saturday aboard a cargo ship, previously owned by a company belonging to a prominent Israeli businessman, as it sailed in the northern Indian Ocean.

and was headed toward the Jebel Ali port in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, according to the pro-Hezbollah Lebanese TV station al-Mayadeen.
I think it’s safe to assume Iran had something to do with a story that interests Hezbollah... | An earlier version of this report, citing Hebrew-language media, noted that the vessel was owned by Zodiac Maritime, a London-based company belonging to Israeli tycoon Eyal Ofer. The vessel was indeed previously owned by the company, but was sold several months ago.
"Following reports in the media, we can confirm that the vessel CSAV Tyndall is not owned or operated by Zodiac Maritime, which is a UK ship management company," the firm said in a statement released Saturday.
Not Israeli AND the attack didn’t work. Those Iranians assuredly do not have Allah in their corner |
