The Houthis attacked the MV Sounion oil tanker last week. The oil tanker has been burning ever since. According to the Pentagon, the ship may leak oil into the sea.
However, Abdulsalam said that a temporary truce has not been reached. Iran’s embassy in the UN, which supports the Houthis, said earlier that the group had agreed to a temporary ceasefire.
