KH network runs Bab al-Mandab ship strikes, names a Saudi vessel

WHAT HAPPENED

Between 08:08 and 09:08 on 11 August, Sabereen News, Unit 10,000 and Al-Ittijah TV each reported a second missile attack on a ship in Bab al-Mandab; Sabereen News then posted two damage photographs captioned as the targeting of "the Saudi enemy ship" and, six minutes later, the two-word line "a maritime event." No Iraqi group claimed responsibility in the collected material, and the official KH channel framed the second strike as "reports of" rather than as its own claim. Visual review of the photographs shows a burnt and torn superstructure with smoke but no hull number, flag or landmark that would fix the vessel or the location.
