Ship carrying military advisers, materials to build missiles, said to vanish on way to Houthi-controlled Yemen

A ship carrying foreign military advisers and materials to manufacture missiles disappeared while en route to Houthi-controlled Yemen on Saturday, the UAE’s Al-Ain Al Ekhbariya reports, citing unnamed security sources in Yemen.

The report did not specify which country the foreign advisers were from, only that they were not from Yemen.

The ship was traveling from the Horn of Africa, and was scheduled to arrive on Friday, the report says.

Top Houthi officials and experts from Iran gathered to discuss the incident in Sana’a, concluding the ship may have been sunk by the United States, or other members of the international coalition currently defending vessels from attacks by the rebel group in the area.
