Houthis enforce embargo on ships heading to or leaving Israel
The Houthi-led government in Yemen announced that it had forced an Israel-bound ship to turn back as it was sailing through the Red Sea in violation of the warnings issued on Saturday
Due to these attacks, many Israeli commercial ships have been forced to change their routes with Israel’s Eilat port recording around 85% loss in its business according to the media reports. The Houthi-led government in Yemen has also fired missiles and drones targeting Eilat.
