Bloomberg: 46 ships changed course before entering the Red Sea
The Bloomberg news agency, citing the data of the ship tracking company, stated that instead of choosing the Red Sea to reach their destination, 46 ships passed through Cape Barehuso (in South Africa).
These events come as the Yemeni army seizes ships crossing the Red Sea to the occupied territories in order to stop the attacks of the Zionist regime against Gaza. Earlier, the armed forces of Yemen issued a statement, in which it was said - Our forces carried out a unique military operation against two ships associated with the Zionist regime. According to this statement, the oil tankers "Swan Atlantic" and "MSC Clara" were targeted when their passengers disobeyed the orders of the Yemeni Navy. The armed forces of Yemen emphasized in this statement. - We assure once again that no damage will be done to all the ships whose route is not the ports of Israel.
With the aim of pushing for an end to the sabotage and barbaric attacks of the Zionist regime of Israel against Gaza, the Yemeni army arrests every ship that wants to sail in the Red Sea and go to the occupied lands or target them with its missile attacks. Citing data from a ship tracking company, Bloomberg News reported on Monday that 46 ships went around the Cape of Good Hope in southern Africa to reach their destination instead of choosing the Red Sea as their destination. At the same time, Osama Rabie, Head of the Suez Canal Department, announced in his statement that, since November 19 last month, 55 ships have changed their course and headed towards the Cape of Good Hope. The alternative route of the Red Sea ship for ships heading to the occupied territories, i.e. Israel, increases the time between 17 and 22 days for the ships to reach their destination, causing the cost of transportation and the price of goods to increase, and even causing the postponement or cancellation of some Israeli commercial transactions. Considering that the maritime trade of the Zionist regime depends to a great extent on the Red Sea, the Zionists are very worried about the economic consequences of the sea siege that the brave and caring Yemenis have put up against the brutal regime that commits brutal killings against the inhabitants of Gaza.
