The Yemeni navy, coastal defense and coast guard warned the US-backed Saudi aggression’s warships not to use the territorial water lanes in the Red Sea to bomb civil targets in the country.

“The aggression’s warships use the international water lanes to bomb civil targets, which creates a serious threat to international navigation in the Red Sea,” a statement issued on Saturday said.

The Yemeni navy, coastal defense and coast guard affirmed readiness to respond to any bombardment from the coalition’s warships under any circumstances.

They also warned merchant vessels of passing through the international water lane without operating the Long Range Tracking and Identification (LRIT) for a safe navigation.
