UK maritime group reports missile strike near vessel off Yemen coast
2024-09-01
[GEOTV] The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) group has received a report of a missile strike near a vessel off the coast of Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of...
''A vessel reports two missiles exploding in close proximity to the vessel,'' the group said in a social media post, stating that the incident took place off the coast east of Aden. ''The Master reports all crew are safe and proceeding to next port of call.''

The incident takes place as Yemen's Iran's Houthi sock puppets
...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to Americaâ„¢, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him...
rebel group continues to enforce what it says is a blockade against ships associated with Israel en route to Israeli ports.
