⚓ Operation Noah's Ark (Karine A)
Here is a brief description in English of the Shayetet 13 operation to seize the Karine A:

"Operation Noah's Ark" (known internationally by the name of the seized vessel, Karine A) was a covert maritime interdiction conducted by the Israeli Naval Commando unit, Shayetet 13, in the Red Sea in January 2002.

The mission's objective was to capture the civilian cargo ship, which was secretly carrying a massive consignment of sophisticated weapons—including Katyusha rockets, mortars, and anti-tank missiles—believed to be of Iranian origin and destined for Palestinian militant groups in the Gaza Strip.

Under the cover of darkness, Shayetet 13 commandos, supported by the Israeli Air Force, executed a textbook boarding operation. They fast-roped from helicopters onto the ship's deck, achieving complete surprise and taking control of the vessel without firing a shot. The successful seizure prevented a dramatic escalation in the arms capability of the Palestinian groups and demonstrated Israel's long-range naval and intelligence projection capabilities.
