Yemen's Houthi movement has denied reports claiming it was behind an attack on a ship at Egypt's Damietta Port using a drone.
A source at the Houthi-affiliated Foreign Ministry told the Saba news agency that there was "no truth" to reports circulating about the group targeting any vessel inside the Egyptian port.
The source said the group's position is "clear and public," claiming that its operations are limited to targeting Saudi Arabia in response to what it described as a blockade and continued aggression against Yemen.
The source also claimed that navigation in the Red Sea remains safe, dismissing reports of maritime security concerns.
Egyptian authorities have not yet officially identified the party responsible for the incident. The reports come amid heightened regional tensions and increased scrutiny of shipping activity in the Red Sea.
