[IsraelTimes] No independent confirmation of attacks; US says it destroyed a Houthi patrol boat
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...
’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 America™, 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...
s on Friday said they targeted two vessels in the Red Sea with drones and missiles, but there was no independent confirmation of the purported attacks.
The group targeted the Elbella and AAL GENOA vessels with "a number of drones and ballistic and naval missiles," the Iran-aligned group’s military front man Yahya Saree said in a televised speech.
Saree did not specify the date on which the strikes were carried out. Rooters did not receive any reports of incidents in the Red Sea on Friday.
Eastern Mediterranean Maritime, manager of the Malta-flagged Elbella container ship, declined comment. Rooters was not immediately able to reach the owner or manager of the Cyprus-flagged AAL Genoa general cargo vessel.
Separately, the United States Central Command said on Friday that Houthis launched in the past 24 hours four anti-ship ballistic missiles over the Red Sea, but there were no injuries or damage.
US forces destroyed one drone launched from a Houthi-controlled area of Yemen into the Bab al-Mandeb Strait and also destroyed a Houthi patrol boat in the Red Sea, the US military said in a post on X.
