“An Indian cargo ship filled with cows was seized by Houthis, mistaking it for an Israeli ship”
What FACTLY found
Media reported on 19 November 2023 that the Houthis of Yemen seized a cargo ship bound for India in the Red Sea, which was linked to an Israeli company. As claimed, there is no evidence that the ship contained cows from India, and also, it was headed to India and did not start from India, which contradicts the claim that cows were being shipped from India
