Yemen's Houthis released video footage on Nov. 20 showing armed men dropping from a helicopter and seizing a cargo ship in the southern Red Sea.

The footage was released by the movement's TV channel Al Masirah a day after the ship was hijacked by the Iran-backed group, who said the ship was linked to Israel. Israel, however, says the seized ship was British-owned and Japanese-operated.

Japan has confirmed the vessel, Galaxy Leader, is a car carrier operated by Nippon Yusen.
