According to the report, there were 22 crew members on board. No additional sources have confirmed the report. The Houthi military spokesman is promising a statement in the coming hours.
The report claims that the ship is carrying cars and belongs to Israeli businessman Rami Ungar, but none of the crew members are Israelis.
The Israeli Foreign Ministry stated that it is aware of the matter.
Earlier on Sunday, the Houthis threatened that they would attack Israeli ships that fly Israeli flags and warned foreign countries "to remove their citizens who work on these ships, to refrain from sending packages or working on these ships, and to tell the ships to distance themselves from them."
