An oil tanker is on fire in the Gulf of Aden, its operator says, after Houthis said they hit it with a missile.
US officials told the BBC’s US partner CBS the tanker was hit by an anti-ship ballistic missile and a naval ship was responding to its distress signal.
There were no injuries reported, the US officials said.
Houthi military spokesman Yaha Sarea said the group used “a number of appropriate naval missiles” and Friday’s strike was “direct”.
“The ship didn’t have relations to the UK! But now that it did, UK was justified for defending israel’s genocide!”.
OK dude
This has nothing to do with Israel. I’ve maintained that the entire time. And it’s still not a British ship. Are you going to support them murdering British tourists too? How far are you willing to support terrorism against civilians?
