America’s claim about firing ballistic missiles at the American ship from Yemen.
In a statement on Sunday evening, the terrorist organization Centcom claimed that two ballistic missiles were fired from the areas under the control of the Houthis (Ansarullah) in Yemen towards the destroyer USS Mason.
Centcom claimed that these missiles landed within eleven miles of the ship and did not cause any damage or casualties.
Centcom claimed that this destroyer, which is part of the Eisenhower carrier strike group, had moved towards this ship in response to receiving an emergency message from the merchant ship “Central Park”.
In that emergency message, Central Park claimed to be the target of an attack. Centcom announced that it was able to prevent the hijacking of this commercial ship, which sailed under the flag of Liberia and is owned by the Zodiac company.
The Associated Press reported that the owner of this commercial ship is an Israeli billionaire. Central Park’s cargo was sulfuric acid and had 22 crew members from different countries.
After the Israeli regime’s attack on Gaza and the blockade of this area, the waters of the Middle East have become the scene of similar events in the past days. Last night, the Hebrew media, including Yediot Aharonot, reported that the Yemeni Navy seized another ship named Central Park, owned by an Israeli businessman named Eyal Ofer.
This is the fourth Israeli ship to be attacked or seized by the resistance axis. Last week, the resistance forces seized a cargo ship related to Israel in the Red Sea and promised to repeat this action on other Israeli ships as well.
On Saturday, a container ship under the management of an Israeli company was targeted by a drone attack in the Indian Ocean.
