Sanaa [Yemen], August 6 (ANI): Yemen's Houthi rebels claimed that they have "successfully" carried out a ballistic missile strike on a Saudi oil tanker in the Gulf of Aden, as the Iran-aligned group continued its campaign against Saudi-linked vessels in the region. In a statement on Telegram, the Houthis claimed that the Saudi oil tanker "Daisy" was targeted with a ballistic missile and said the vessel was hit and forced to change course. "Successfully targeted the Saudi oil tanker 'Daisy' in the Gulf of Aden with a ballistic missile. "This targeting comes within the framework of enforcing the maritime blockade against the Saudi enemy, according to the principle of 'blockade for blockade'," the statement added. The claim comes a day after the Houthis announced another strike on a Saudi oil tanker in the northern Red Sea.
