Houthis say they were not behind drone strike on Egypt port: Affiliated media

Yemen's Houthi rebels declared on Thursday that they were not behind a drone strike the day before that hit a U.S.-owned-and-operated gas storage ship in the Egyptian port of Damietta.

According to the Houthi-affiliated news agency Saba, an official in the movement's foreign affairs office said "rumors claiming Yemen targeted a ship in Damietta Port in the Arab Republic of Egypt are unfounded."
