Yemeni Forces Target Another Saudi Oil Tanker Near Yanbu

Yemeni armed forces announced on Tuesday that they successfully targeted a Saudi oil tanker named ‘Wafa’ with ballistic missiles off the coast of Yanbu, in retaliation for the ongoing Saudi blockade against Yemen.

According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, Mehr News Agency, citing Al Masirah, Yahya Saree, the spokesperson for the Yemeni armed forces, stated: “Yemeni forces successfully targeted the Saudi oil tanker ‘Wafa’ in front of the Yanbu region by firing a number of ballistic missiles. This vessel was precisely hit with the help of God.”

He added that the number of Saudi oil tankers targeted has now reached eight since the beginning of the naval blockade against the country on July 22. Saree specified: “We prevented the movement of 29 Saudi oil tankers and forced them to return to the Red and Arabian Seas.”

The naval blockade by Saudi Arabia is carried out in response to the oppressive siege imposed by that country against Yemen.
