Yemen Terrorists highjack cargo ship in RedSea

Terrorists Hi-Jack Cargo Ship

In a recent alarming incident, Yemen’s Houthi terrorists captured a massive 620-foot cargo ship in the Red Sea, with shocking footage of the event released on Monday. The video features Houthi fighters jumping from a helicopter onto the ship and taking all 25 crew members hostage.

The owner of the ship, Galaxy Leader, confirmed that their vessel was “illegally boarded by military personnel via a helicopter”. After the hostile takeover, all communications with the vessel were lost. While the company refrained from commenting on the political or geopolitical situation, it expressed deep concern for the safety and security of its crew members.

The Jerusalem Post reported that the Bahamas-flagged Galaxy Leader cargo ship is leased to a Japanese company by a British company, partially owned by an Israeli businessman. Despite none of the crew members being Israeli citizens, Israel strongly condemned the Iranian attack against the international vessel.

"The company, as a shipping concern, will not be commenting further on the political or geopolitical situation."
