Yemen’s Houthi group has warned it will target all vessels linked to Israel, regardless of destination or nationality, in retaliation for Israel’s blockade of Gaza, according to Xinhua.

A Houthi spokesperson Yahya Sarea, urged companies to stop dealing with Israeli ports and called on the international community to pressure Israel to end its campaign in Gaza.

The group has attacked several ships since late 2023, claiming the actions are in support of Palestinians, Xinhua reported.
