Yemen news via Russian sources: Ansar Allah movement published details of yesterday's attacks on merchant ships: two oil tankers were targeted.
▪️According to the spokesman of the Yemeni Houthis, General Yahya Sarie, the vessel MV BLUE LAGOON I, carrying about 2 million barrels of oil, was attacked with two ballistic missiles west of the port of As-Salif.
This is almost twice as much as the Greek-owned MV DELTA SOUNION, which the Yemenis attacked on August 21 and which is still burning.
▪️West of the port of Al-Hudaydah, a drone strike hit the Saudi-flagged and Greek-operated ship MV AMJAD.
🔻Both tankers were damaged, but the extent of the damage is still unknown. The information about the successful #AnsarAllah attacks is confirmed by the US Central Command.
Meanwhile, according to the #US agency, work is underway in the #RedSea to prevent an environmental disaster due to the oil spill from the damaged MV DELTA SOUNION.
