Last week, the Yemeni military announced capturing an Israeli ship in the Red Sea with 52 crew members on board.
The Chief of the Yemeni Naval Force made on Wednesday a visit to the vessel, Galaxy Leader, confirming that similar operations will be conducted until the aggression on Gaza stops.
Major General Muhammad Fadl Abdulnabi renewed earlier commitment that only ships flying the Israeli flag or managed by Israeli companies or owned by Israeli individuals are the target.
"We warn all companies and traders against shipping their goods and conducting business with Israeli ships or engaging in any dealings with them," the sea military force warned in a statement.
"We caution that any military unit protecting Israeli ships will be a legitimate target for our operations," the General reiterated.
