Zionist Reporter has claimed an Israeli ship has been hit by a missile attack near the coast of UAE.
The Hyperion ship belongs to the Israeli regime’s company “PCC” was targeted near Fujairah in the United Arab Emirates.
Israeli media JP has confirmed the attack on the ship.
Another Israeli regime’s TV channel also claimed that the ship has been targeted by an Iranian missile.
It is said that the ship belongs to a friend of Mossad’s chief.
A commercial vessel owned by an Israeli firm was attacked off the coast of the United Arab Emirates in Gulf waters, pro-Iran media and an Israeli television channel said on Tuesday.
Israel’s top-rated Channel 12 quoted unnamed Israeli officials as blaming arch-foe Iran for the assault, which it described as a missile strike. There were no casualties and the ship continued on its course, the TV channel added.
Two maritime security sources told that an Israeli ship was hit near the UAE’s Fujairah port resulting in an explosion but that there were no casualties.
Officials in Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office and Israel’s Defence Ministry declined to comment on the incident. A spokesman for Israel’s Transportation Ministry said he was aware of the reports but could not confirm them.
There was no immediate confirmation from the UAE.
The incident comes a day after Tehran accused Israel of sabotaging a nuclear site, and after Iran and the United States began indirect talks in Vienna on ways to revive world powers’ 2015 nuclear deal with Tehran.
