The Mullahs regime received a blow in Yemen by the regional coalition, a setback of its efforts to send facilities to the Houthies in Yemen under the cover of humanitarian aids. The Iranian regime sent a ship called ” Iran Shahed” to the Yemen waters last month which was faced with reaction of the government of Yemen, the regional coalition led by Saudi Arabia and the United Stated . They reasoned that if the Iranian regime wanted to help the Yemenis people it should send it through the United Nations as the other countries do.
First, after boasting about its military strength and that Iran is the supreme military power in the Middle East, the Iranian regime announced that it plans to deliver the cargo to the Yemenis people in Hodeida Harbor and nobody can prevent it of this target. A naval commander was quoted as saying by state news agency IRNA Iranian warships will escort the vessel.
Washington cautioned against ‘provocative actions’ after Iran dispatched a cargo ship to Yemen.
The United States said it was tracking Iranian warships accompanying the vessel bound for the port of Hodeida, and urged Iran instead to use a U.N. distribution hub in Djibouti to provide help to people in the war-damaged Arabian Peninsula country.
‘We’re certainly tracking this convoy closely,’ U.S. State Department spokesman Jeff Rathke told a daily briefing. ‘We would discourage any provocative actions.’
When the Iranian regime found that it is getting to a serious point of confrontation, it retreated, returned the vessel to Bandar Abbas in Iran and sent the vessel this time to Djibouti to deliver the Cargo to the UN.
