Aug 11 (Reuters) – Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis attacked a Saudi ship carrying military equipment in Bab el-Mandeb, Houthi-run news agency Saba reported.
There was no immediate Saudi confirmation.
The Houthis said on July 20 they would impose a naval blockade on Saudi Arabia in the Red Sea in response to what they described as a Saudi siege on Yemen, an allegation Riyadh has denied.
