Iran rejects ‘baseless’ US claim about Iran targeting chemical tanker off Indian coast | Oneindia

On December 25, an Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson dismissed the Pentagon's assertion of Iran's involvement in an alleged attack on a chemical ship off the coast of India as "groundless." This response comes in the wake of the United States military accusing Iran of a drone strike on the Japanese-owned chemical tanker MV Chem Pluto, described as "Israel-affiliated." Iran's foreign ministry spokesperson, Nasser Kanaani, addressed the accusations during a briefing, categorically rejecting them as baseless.

He urged Washington to confront allegations related to its involvement in Israel's actions in Gaza instead.

Kanaani characterised the claims as a deliberate effort to deflect public attention and to conceal what he described as the American government's unequivocal support for Israel's actions in Gaza.

Two Missiles, One Target: Houthis’ Red Sea Assault, Panama-Flagged Anadolu S Hit Twice in Hours

Tensions in the Red Sea escalated dramatically as Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels targeted the Panama-flagged bulk carrier Anadolu S with two missile strikes in a matter of hours. The first attack occurred late Sunday night, narrowly missing the vessel's stern. Despite warnings, the ship continued its course, prompting a second strike the following day, landing just a nautical mile away. While no casualties or damage were reported, the incident highlights the Houthis' growing maritime campaign, which they claim is in solidarity with Gaza. The Bahrain-based Combined Task Force confirmed the strikes, raising concerns over shipping safety in the region. This bold assault underscores the escalating risks for international vessels navigating the Red Sea amid intensifying regional tensions. #RedSeaTensions #HouthiMissileStrikes #AnadoluSAttack #MaritimeConflict #RedSeaCrisis #HouthiAssault #ShippingUnderFire #MaritimeSecurity #RedSeaEscalation #PanamaFlaggedShip #MissileStrikes #HouthisInAction #GlobalShippingThreat #RedSeaDanger #MaritimeRisks ~HT.178~PR.152~ED.101~GR.124~
