Although the hijackers did capture it as a pressure tactic in response to the ongoing war in Gaza, it is not related to IDF or Israeli govt. This is a cargo ship owned by an Israeli businessman and operated by a Japanese firm. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/11/20/japan-in-direct-contact-with-houthi-rebels-on-highjacked-ship
