A tanker owned and operated by a company based in Hong Kong has been hit by Houthi forces, despite the Yemeni group claiming vessels associated with China would not be targeted.
Houthi forces have struck a tanker owned and operated by a company based in Hong Kong, the U.S. Central Command has reported, calling the vessel “Chinese”. The Huang Pu, which was sailing under a Panamanian flag, was targeted with five anti-ship missiles on Saturday, CENTCOM said. The ship sent a distress signal but did not ask for assistance, the U.S. Naval Institute cited Central Command as saying.
The Yemeni Houthis have declared they would strike UK, U.S., and other Western ships but not touch Chinese and Russian vessels. Saudi tankers have also been excluded from their target list. The group earlier this month warned of more attacks after a British-owned ship sank following missile strikes.
