【新华社/人民日报/中央电视台/华尔街日报/纽约时报 联合报道】1月31日晚间，也门胡塞武装组织在其官方网站上发布声明，声称对其发动了一次针对美国商船“科尔”号（ Cole）的袭击行动。据胡塞武装军事发言人叶海亚·萨里阿透露，该艘满载货物的美国商船当时正航行在从也门海域前往以色列北部某重要港口的途中。
声明指出，胡塞武装向“科尔”号发射了一枚导弹，该导弹准确命中目标，导致船只受到了一定的损害。所幸的是，此次袭击并未造成人员伤亡。目前，“科尔”号正在附近海域接受紧急维修，并已暂停行程，等待进一步评估受损情况及是否能够继续安全抵达目的地。

On the evening of January 31st, the Yemeni Houthi armed group issued a statement on its official website claiming that it had carried out an attack against the American merchant vessel “Cole” (also known as Cole). According to a military spokesperson for the Houthi forces,葉海亞·薩里阿, the cargo-laden American ship was en route to a significant northern port in Israel from Yemenese waters when the missile assault took place.
The statement detailed that the Houthi forces fired a missile at the “Cole,” which struck the target with precision, causing some damage to the vessel. Fortunately, there were no reported casualties resulting from the attack. Currently, the “Cole” is receiving emergency repairs in nearby waters and has suspended its journey pending further evaluation of the extent of the damage and whether it can safely continue to its destination.
In response to this incident, the United States has strongly condemned the action, deeming it a grave violation of international law and humanitarian principles, posing a threat to the safety and stability of international maritime trade routes. The U.S. government will closely monitor developments and take appropriate measures as needed to protect its national interests and the lives and property of its citizens. International society is closely watching the situation, urging all parties involved to exercise restraint and seek resolution through dialogue and diplomatic means, working together to preserve regional peace and security.
