Israel-Linked Tanker Seized by Attackers off Yemen's Coast

Attackers have seized the Liberian-flagged tanker Central Park, linked to Israel, off the coast of Aden, Yemen. The vessel is managed by Zodiac Maritime, part of Israeli billionaire Eyal Ofer's Zodiac Group. While no group has claimed responsibility, this incident follows two other maritime attacks in recent days that have been linked to the Israel-Hamas conflict. The safety of the multinational crew onboard is the top priority, and U.S. and coalition forces are closely monitoring the situation. The seizure comes amid a wider shadow war between Iran and Israel, with previous attacks targeting Zodiac Maritime. The attacks on shipping vessels highlight the escalating threat to global shipping in the ongoing conflict.
