The Iranian intelligence ship Behshad, linked to assisting Houthi attacks in the Red Sea, has returned to Iran after a three-year deployment. This move comes amid heightened tensions and threats from Israel, which is considering retaliatory measures against Iran for its role in the regional conflict. The ship, operated by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, has been a significant asset in the area, providing targeting data that facilitated Houthi attacks on commercial and naval vessels. Its return is seen as a reaction to potential Israeli military actions. Notably, the ship turned off its AIS on April 4, indicating a covert return, as reported by Bloomberg.
