Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Strike Israel-Linked Vessel in Gulf
Cargo ships and tankers are seen off coast city of Fujairah, in the Strait of Hormuz in the northern Emirate.
Bangla Press Desk: Iran's Revolutionary Guards said on Saturday they targeted an Israel-linked ship in the Gulf in a drone attack, setting it on fire.
On their Sepah News website, the Guards said they targeted a commercial vessel, the MSC Ishyka, "owned by the Israeli regime and flying the flag of a third country" at the Khalifa Bin Salman port in Bahrain.
The Guards naval forces had earlier said in a post on X that the ship was attacked "in the Strait of Hormuz".
"A drone struck the vessel ... linked to the Zionist regime in the Strait of Hormuz; the ship caught fire," they said.
The MarineTraffic website said the Liberian-flagged ship was still moored at the port in Bahrain on Friday night. Source: daily Sun
