IDF Spokesperson:
“The incident of the hijacking of the cargo ship by the Houthis near Yemen in the southern Red Sea is a very serious incident at the global level. This is a ship that left Turkey on its way to India with an international crew, without Israelis.
This is not an Israeli ship”
PMO:
We strongly condemn the Iranian attack against an international ship.
The ship, owned by a British company and operated by a Japanese company, was hijacked on Iranian whim by the Houthi militia in Yemen.
On board the ship are 25 crew members of different nationalities, including: Ukrainians, Bulgarians, Filipinos and Mexicans.
No Israelis were present on the ship.
This is another act of Iranian terrorism which expresses a leap forward in Iran’s aggression against the citizens of the free world, and creates international implications regarding the security of global shipping lanes.
