Yemen's Houthis said on Sunday they would maintain their maritime blockade against Israeli vessels in response to "intelligence information" regarding Israeli shipping companies selling their assets to other companies.
Yahya Sarea, the military spokesperson of the Iran-aligned group, said in a televised address that the Houthis would not recognise any changes of ownership and warned against any collaboration with these companies.
