Yemeni Armed Forces target ship violating port ban in occupied Palestine
Footage released by the Yemeni Military Media shows the Yemeni Armed Forces targeting the ship “TRANSWORLD NAVIGATOR,” owned by a company violating the ban on entering ports in occupied Palestine.
The attack, carried out on June 23, 2024, utilized the guided drone boat “Tufan Al-Mudammer” (“Destructive Flood”), marking the first public demonstration of its maneuverability and capabilities.
The naval forces of the Yemeni Armed Forces executed the targeting operation against the ship in the Red Sea, deploying an uncrewed surface boat which successfully hit the vessel. The military spokesman, General Yahya Sarea, confirmed the operation, highlighting the effectiveness of the "Tufan Al-Mudammer" in the assault.
This incident underscores the ongoing tensions and enforcement actions related to maritime activities in the region, particularly concerning the adherence to port bans imposed by Yemeni authorities. The use of advanced drone boat technology by the Yemeni Armed Forces indicates a significant development in their operational capabilities. (ILKHA)
