(Ynet News) The Israeli airstrikes on Houthi targets in Yemen on Sunday night included the Galaxy Leader cargo ship, which was hijacked by the Houthis at sea in November 2023. The freighter was reportedly owned by an Israeli businessman, but officials in the Prime Minister's Office clarified that the ownership belonged to a British company operated by a Japanese firm, with crew from Bulgaria, Ukraine, the Philippines and Mexico - and no Israelis. The 25 crew members were released only 14 months after the hijacking. The IDF said, "Houthi terrorist forces installed radar systems on the ship and use it to track vessels in international waters to advance Houthi terror activity." The vessel was also turned into a "tourist attraction," drawing crowds who arrived by small fishing boats and stepped on American and Israeli flags while Houthi music played over loudspeakers. 2025-07-08 00:00:00Full Article
