Yemen's Houthi Rebels Share Video Of India-Bound Ship's Hijacking

The ship from Turkey was heading for India when it was hijacked yesterday. The bone-chilling two-minute clip shows the hijack.

A video of the hijacked cargo ship "Galaxy Leader" has been released by Yemen's Houthi rebels. The rebels, who had promised to target Israeli ships over its war on Hamas, insist that the ship is Israeli. Israel has denied, adding that it does not have any Israeli citizen on board either.

The rebels had come on a helicopter that landed on the ship's deck, where no one was about. Then shouting slogans and firing shots, they run across the deck, taking over the wheelhouse and the control centre.
