“This ship practically acted as a logistics station (technical support and logistics) of Iran in the Red Sea, and therefore the specifications and mission of this ship had previously been officially announced.”

The Defense Minister was asked about the alleged attack, where he responded to Channel 12 news that he would not discuss “any of the operations that are taking place in the Middle East and are associated with” Israel.

“The State of Israel must continue to defend itself,” said Gantz. “Wherever we find an operational challenge and operational need we will continue to act.”
