Yemen s Houthi rebels have released footage of their military wing hijacking a cargo ship in the Red Sea.
The footage shows the Iranian-backed group landing on the ship called ‘Galaxy Leader’ – in a helicopter, before taking the crew hostage.
A Houthi spokesperson says the rebels commandeered the ship because it was owned by an Israeli, and warned they view any ships with links to Israel as legitimate military targets.
Israel has said the ship is British-owned and Japanese-operated, and called the seizure an Iranian act of terror .
Iran denies any involvement in the hijacking.
