Yemen's Houthis said on Wednesday they targeted four vessels, including what they described as a U.S. warship, with drones and naval missiles in the Gulf of Aden, part of their stated campaign of solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza. The Iran-aligned group attacked "MSC Darwin ship, MSC GINA, MV Yorktown" along with the U.S. destroyer, the group's military spokesman Yahya Sarea said in a televised speech. The U.S. military said on Tuesday that it had destroyed an inbound anti-ship ballistic missile over the Gulf of Aden that was launched by Houthis and likely targeting the MV Yorktown. There were no injuries or damage reported to U.S., coalition or commercial ships in the incident, the U.S. Central Command added.

Vlad and Teheran really appreciate the recent 20% bump in energy prices and will be showing their gratitude via armaments sent back in return.

Iran is supplying the weapons, and Iran’s Revolutionary Guards are operating in Yemen. A Yemeni official said last week that the Revolutionay Guards are actually firing the missles and operating the drones.

In the old days, the civilized world occupied pirate bases and hanged pirates to ensure safe navigation of the seas.
