Yemen's Houthis say they targeted ship in Haifa port with Islamic Resistance in Iraq
Yemen's Houthis said on Wednesday they targeted a ship in Israel's Haifa port with a number of drones in a joint military operation with the Islamic Resistance in Iraq.
The operation targeted the Portuguese-flagged container ship MSC Manzanillo, the Iran-aligned Houthi group's military spokesman Yahya Saree said in a televised speech on Wednesday.
The Israeli military is not aware of any such incident, a spokesperson said, and there was no indication of anything unusual at Haifa port.
