US Navy Secures Seized Israeli-Owned Oil Tanker, As Iran Proxies Vow To Target More Vessels​

The USS Mason and allied ships from the coalition counter-piracy task force managed to secure the Israeli-linked Central Park chemical tanker which an “unknown entity” attempted to seize in the Gulf of Aden, US Central Command (CENTCOM) said on Monday morning.

The tanker had been carrying a cargo of phosphoric acid.

During the efforts to free the ship from the attackers, five armed individuals attempted to flee in a small boat and were arrested by the US Navy. The crew of the Central Park was safe.

Early on Monday morning, two ballistic missiles were fired from areas controlled by the Iran-backed Houthi militia in Yemen toward the USS Mason as the USS Mason was concluding its response to a distress call by the Central Park tanker, according to CENTCOM. The missiles fell ten nautical miles away from the vessels. No damage or injuries were caused.

“Maritime domain security is essential to regional stability,” said Gen. Michael Erik Kurilla, USCENTCOM commander. “We will continue to work with allies and partners to ensure the safety and security of international shipping lanes.”

The incident is the latest in a series of attacks in Middle Eastern waters since a brutal war between Israel and the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas broke out on October 7.

It followed a seizure of an Israeli-linked cargo ship by Yemen Houthis, allies of Iran, in the southern Red Sea last week. The group, which also fired ballistic missiles and armed drones at Israel, vowed to target more Israeli vessels.
