[Regnum] An American ship opened fire in the Red Sea, trying to shoot down a reconnaissance aircraft of the Ansar Allah (Houthis) group ruling in northern Yemen. This was stated by Houthi spokesman Mohammed Abdel Salam.
The Houthis said the US accidentally fired on a ship coming from Russia.
He clarified that the ship opened fire from several guns, one of the missiles exploded next to a ship flying the Gabonese flag, which was sailing from a Russian port.
“While an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft belonging to the Yemeni navy was conducting reconnaissance over the Red Sea, a US warship […] opened fire from several guns, demonstrating a state of confusion and anxiety,” a representative of the movement wrote on the Telegram channel.
The Houthi spokesman pointed out that the threat to international maritime traffic arises as a result of the militarization of the Red Sea by the United States and its partners.
As Regnum reported , on December 23, in the Red Sea, the Houthis carried out a drone attack on two oil tankers sailing under the flags of Norway and India. According to the US Navy Central Command, the US military received information about attacks on tankers in the southern part of the sea in the evening.
The two vessels in question are BLAAMANEN, a Norwegian-flagged chemical and oil tanker, and SAIBABA, a Gabon-owned Indian-flagged crude oil tanker.
UKMTO in the Bab al-Mandeb Strait of the Red Sea recorded drone activity on December 3, followed by a suspected explosion. It was noted that the drones appeared from Yemen.
In early December, the Houthis attacked the American warship USS Carney with missiles and drones in the Red Sea. According to UK-based maritime security company Ambrey, the cargo ship was damaged in a drone strike off the northern Yemeni port of Hodeidah.
