Saudi-led coalition vows to target suspicious ships in Red Sea

Riyadh, Sep 24 (IANS) The Saudi-led coalition involved in a war in Yemen vowed on Monday to continue to target suspicious ships threatening navigation in the Red Sea.

The ship is assisting Houthi militias in threatening the international navigation, he added.
