Israel-linked tanker boarded off Yemen: security firm

A tanker linked to an Israel-affiliated company, the Central Park vessel owned and managed by a UK-based, Israel-linked company, was boarded off the coast of Yemen. US naval forces are engaged in the situation after Yemen's Iran-backed Huthi rebels threatened to attack the tanker if it did not divert to the port of Hodeida. Communications from a US coalition warship warned the Central Park to disregard the messages. The boarding took place offshore from the Yemeni port city of Aden.
