YEMEN-ISRAEL-PALESTINIAN-CONFLICT-HUTHI-SHIP

A picture taken during an organised tour by Yemen's Huthi rebels on November 22, 2023 shows a security guard aboard the Galaxy Leader cargo ship, seized by Huthi fighters two days earlier, in a port on the Red Sea in the Yemeni province of Hodeida, with Palestinian and Yemeni flags installed on it. The Bahamas-flagged, British-owned Galaxy Leader, operated by a Japanese firm but having links to an Israeli businessman, was headed from Turkey to India when it was seized and re-routed to Hodeida November 19, according to maritime security company Ambrey. The Huthis said the capture was in retaliation for Israel's war against Hamas, sparked by the October 7 attack by the Palestinian militants who killed 1,200 people and took around 240 hostages, according to Israeli officials.
