The Yemeni Armed Forces say they will continue to hit all Israeli-linked ships in the high seas despite efforts to bypass Yemeni punitive measures.

Brigadier General Yahya Saree said on Sunday that many shipping companies affiliated with Israel are selling their assets to other companies or changing their registration in an effort to bypass the punitive measure by Yemen.
Saree warned that all parties dealing with these companies and vessels are subject to punishment and prohibited from crossing the Yemeni Armed Forces’ zone of operations.
He added that any change in the ownership or flags of the Israel-linked ships won’t save them from Yemen’s measures.
“Intelligence information confirms that many Israeli enemy shipping companies are working to sell their assets and transfer their maritime shipping and transport properties to other companies or register them under other names as a means of circumventing the punitive measures imposed by the Republic of Yemen on those ships and companies,” he said.
“The Yemeni Armed Forces continue to enforce the maritime blockade on the Israeli enemy and target all ships affiliated with, associated with, or heading towards it. This blockade will remain in place until the aggression stops, the blockade on Gaza is lifted, and the aggression on Lebanon ceases,” Saree said.
The Yemeni armed forces have carried out hundreds of missile strikes against targets lying across the Israeli-occupied territories as well as Israeli ships and those heading towards or away from the territories since October 2023.
The Israeli aggression against the besieged Gaza Strip began in October last year. Since then, more than 43,300 Palestinians have been killed, mostly women and children.
