Yemeni Minister: Iran aims to replicate Hormuz in Red Sea
The statements focused on the fact that the Houthi attack using a remotely controlled, bomb-laden boat against an Indian vessel in the Red Sea represents a serious escalation that threatens maritime security, as it endangers commercial ships and global supply chains. The Yemeni Minister of Information warned that the international community's weak stance gives Iran an opportunity to expand its influence by developing Houthi capabilities, with an Iranian plan to replicate the Strait of Hormuz model in the Bab el-Mandeb area, using the Houthis as a main tool. The attacks resulted in the sinking of the Indian vessel “Vais Noor Olya,” but Yemeni coast guard forces successfully rescued all crew members, totaling 14 sailors, with no human casualties.
