The Wall Street Journal reported that Russia supplied targeting intelligence to Yemen's Houthi forces for attacks on Western ships in the Red Sea.
Yemen’s Houthi terroristsused targeting data provided by Russia to attack Western ships in the Red Sea earlier this year, an exclusive Thursday Wall Street Journal report disclosed.
According to the report, the Houthis used Russian satellite data to destabilize the region as the Israel-Hamas war expanded throughout the past year. A person familiar with the matter and two European defense officials reportedly told the WSJ this information.
Furthermore, the data was passed through Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) members embedded within the Houthis, one of the sources reportedly said.
The report added that the assistance of Russia to the Iran-backed Houthis, designated by the US as a terror group, showed Russian President Vladimir Putin’s commitment to causing instability in the Middle East and undermining the US and Western world.
