Yemeni Hutyvit began to warn about the attacks of ship captains - Reuters

The letter, among others, received a top manager of a Greek shipping company, whose ship was moored at the port of Israel. The Yemeni Huts, who attack the ships in the Red Sea, now send letters with warnings. It became known from a manager from Greece, who was informed in the email that if his ship "sank", he would become a "direct target". Reuters writes about it.

The report contains a warning that one of the vessels of a company passing through the Red Sea is at risk of attack by Yran's Hussites supported by Iran. The vessel managing Greece has violated the Hussite's ban on transit, moving in the Israeli Port, and "will become a direct target of the Yemeni Armed Forces in any area that they will consider the right one," says in a message written in English.

"You are responsible and the consequences of entry of the vessel in the list of prohibited vessels," - said in an email signed by the Humanitarian Operations Coordination Center (HOCC), based in Yemen, a body created in February for interaction between Hussite forces and commercial navigable operators.

Since November, about 100 attacks on vessels crossing the Red Sea have been carried out, acting as a sign of solidarity with Palestinians in the ongoing military operation of Israel in the Gaza sector. They drove two vessels, seized one more, and killed at least four sailors. The email received at the end of May contained a warning of the "sanctions" for the entire fleet of the company, if the ship continues to "violate the ban criteria and enter the ports of Israel.

" The head of the Greek shipping company asked to maintain its anonymity. According to six sources in the industry, which are directly familiar with the content of letters and two sources that have indirect information, this warning message has become the first of more than a dozen letters with more threatening content sent to at least six Greek navigable companies since May in the Middle East.

Since last year, the huts have been launched, armed drones are engaged and boats loaded with explosives, on commercial vessels related to Israeli, American and British structures. Electronic mailing, which has not been reported before, indicates that the rebels are expanding their networks and targeting Greek merchant vessels that have a weak connection with Israel or have no do not have it at all.

For the first time in recent months, threats have been directed against whole fleets, which has increased the risks for those vessels who are still trying to cross the Red Sea. "Your ships have violated the armed forces of Yemen. Therefore, the punishment will be applied to all vessels of your company . . . Best wishes, Navy Yemen," - says in a separate email sent in June with the Web Domen of Yemeni Government the first company a few weeks later and to another Greek shipping company.

Yemen, located at the entrance to the Red Sea, was involved in a long -term civil war. In 2014, Husita seized the capital of the dignity and overthrew an internationally recognized government. In January, the United States returned Hussites to their list of terrorist groups. In response to Reuters' request, Hussite officials refused to confirm the sending of emails or to provide any additional comments, stating that it was secret military information.

According to Lloyd's List Intelligence, on Greek ships, which are one of the largest fleets in the world, accounts for almost 30% of attacks made by Hussite forces at the beginning of September. It does not specify whether these ships were related to Israel.

In August, Hussite's militia, which is part of the Iranian Alliance, the "Osma of the Resistance", which consists of irregular armed formations opposed to Israel, attacked the Sunion tanker, which burned for several weeks before he managed to move to a safer place. The strikes forced a lot of cargoes to follow a much longer route around Africa. According to Lloyd's List Intelligence, traffic through the Suez channel fell from about 2000 transits a month to November 2023 to about 800 in August.
