French navy intercepts two Houthi drones off coast of Yemen

The French military announced Saturday night that a French destroyer intercepted two drones in the Red Sea, off the coast of Yemen.

The drones were allegedly launched by Houthi rebels.

The incident took place 110 kilometers (about 68 miles) off the coast of Yemen, near the Houthi-controlled port city of Al-Hudaydah.

On Saturday evening, the Houthis announced they would begin attacking any ship heading to or from an Israeli port, even if not Israeli-owned.

"If Gaza does not get the food and medicine it needs, all ships in the Red Sea sailing towards Israeli ports, regardless of the nationality of their owners, will become a target for our armed forces," Houthi spokesman Yahya Saria said.
