The Proyan proxy launched a break of 2 hours on the Languedoc frigate. The ship's crew used anti -aircraft complexes to protect. The French frigate D643 Languedoc was attacked by two drones while patrolling the Red Sea. This was reported by France 24. The General Staff reported that on Sunday, the Languedoc frigate, which was deployed in the Red Sea, opened a fire on two drones. They were released from the coast of Yemen. The goals were successfully impressed. The attack was carried out by Iran proxy.

The event took place around 8:30 pm and 22:30. The drones flew specifically towards the French frigate. Aster 15, which are designed to protect against low and medium-range threats, reported sources of journalists to intercept the goals. On December 9, the Yemeni proxy stated that any ships departing to Israeli ports will be attacked due to the continuation of the fighting in the Gaza Sector. Hamas called such a statement "bold and courageous.

" The Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that the frigate had knocked down the drones within the limits of legal defense, and the Yemeni Husita had an attack. The publication notes that the incident occurred against the background of other acts of piracy and attacks by Iranian proxy in Yemen - this indicates a "disturbing increase" of the amount of encroachment to freedom of navigation in the Red Sea. Therefore, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs urged to stop the attacks.
