Abstract

The Behshad, an Iranian ship that provides logistics support for other vessels, has returned to the Gulf of Aden after a reported cyberattack by the US. The ship had previously sailed to Djibouti but did not return to Iran. The return of the Behshad coincides with recent attacks on merchant shipping in the region by Yemen's Houthi rebels. Some analysts believe that the ship is being used by Iran to assist the Houthis in coordinating these attacks. The Pentagon has acknowledged the presence of the vessel but has not commented on its operations. [Extracted from the article]
