The Israeli owned ship seized by Yemenis today belongs to Eyal Ofer

The wealthiest man in Israel

His company Zodiac Maritime is one of the largest international ship operators in the world and manages a fleet of 128 vessels.

The biggest Israeli billionaires are being hit where it hurts the most, and the pressure on the Israeli establishment is growing

This is another one… I think:

Yeah it’s 3 ships.
