(Gulf News).An Iranian ship laden with various weapons believed to be for Al Houthi rebels was seized Monday off the Yemeni coasts of the Midi harbour in the far northern west of the country, security sources said Tuesday.
The 5-member crew, 4 Iranians and Indian, were taken immediately to the capital Sanaa for investigation.
The security sources believed that the ship was in its way to unload its weapon shipment, which includes anti-armour missiles, somewhere close to Haradh where it could be hidden in a farm before Al Houthi rebels collected them.
The Haradh area is only tens of kilometers from the western frontline of Al Malahaid.
