The group has stepped up the missile and drone attacks it began last month against international vessels in response to Israel's assault on the Gaza Strip.

"As for naval operations, they're in full swing, and perhaps not 12 hours would pass without an operation," the group's spokesperson and top negotiator Mohammed Abdelsalam told al Jazeera TV.
