Israeli-owned cargo ship attacked in Indian Ocean: Israeli media
ANKARA (AA) – An Israeli-owned cargo ship was attacked on Friday by an Iranian drone in the Indian Ocean, Israeli media reported.
Citing an unnamed US security source, Israeli Channel 12 reported on Saturday that a ship named the CMA CGM Symi, owned by an Israeli businessman, was “attacked by an Iranian drone in the Indian Ocean.”
The Hezbollah-affiliated Al-Mayadeen channel confirmed that “an Israeli ship was targeted in the Arabian Sea on Friday, hours before implementation of the current humanitarian pause in the Gaza Strip.”
The ship reportedly caught fire after being targeted by an Iranian drone, according to Al-Mayadeen.
No casualties were reported.
This is the second time an Israeli-owned cargo ship has been attacked in recent days. Last Sunday, Yemen’s Houthis announced that they had captured an Israeli ship in the Red Sea and taken it to the Yemeni coast.
