Yemeni naval forces seized a vessel in the Red Sea carrying military equipment allegedly smuggled from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to the Houthi group, local media reported Thursday, Anadolu reports.

The vessel was intercepted Wednesday evening while carrying equipment used in the manufacture of drones, Yemen TV reported, citing the military media of the National Resistance Forces.

Hours later, naval patrols detected five Houthi boats attempting to approach islands overlooking the international shipping lane in the Red Sea, the report said.
