The Houthi-hit Greek tanker Sounion, carrying 1 million barrels of crude oil (150,000 tons), was hit last week by missiles off the coast of Yemen.
The video was released on Thursday afternoon by HouThy.
The video shows a powerful explosion of a tanker carrying more than 150,000 tons of crude oil. The ship is burning abandoned, 77 nautical miles off the coast of Yemen.

Frame by frame the invasion
According to a report by SKAI, the video, published by the Houthis themselves, shows the rebels boarding the Greek-flagged tanker “Sounion”. This is the first footage from the ship shortly after the Houthi strike, in which the Houthis are checking the interior of the tanker, possibly to see if it has been abandoned by its sailors.
The attack was preceded by an RPG anti-tank weapon and for this some fire foci are observed. They then plant the explosives and detonate them.
