The ship sustained damage on its starboard side and is heading to its next port, according to Ambrey. There were no injuries, the crew is safe and sound, according to the same company.
Bulk carrier, which is Greek owned and it sails under the Marshall Islands flagreported being targeted “two-missile” attack within 20 minutes off the coast of Yemen, a British private maritime security company announced today.
According to the Ambrey company, “the crew is safe and sound,” but the ship suffered damage to its starboard side and is “heading for its next port of call.”
In Red Sea the rebels Houthi of Yemen have since the end of last year launched dozens of attacks against commercial ships that they say are “connected” to Israel, in a show of solidarity with the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
Earlier, Britain’s Maritime Safety Office (UKMTO) said it had received information about an “incident” in the Red Sea, about 40 nautical miles (74 km) south of the Yemeni city of Al Moha. Later, she calmed down in her turn, stating that although the ship was targeted by two missiles, it was not hit, the crew is safe and continues on its way to the port which is its next stop.
