Brent Bounces As Houthis Attack, Sink Vessel Off Yemen With Sea Drone
The Houthis have quickly made good on their earlier threat, with the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) Centre having reported the following fresh attack off Yemen:
UKMTO has received a time-late report of an incident 9NM southwest of Al Mukha, Yemen.
The CSO of the vessel has reported that the vessel was attacked by an Uncrewed Surface Vessel which caused a fire onboard. The crew have been rescued by local authorities and are safe and well.
The vessel has been reported as sunk.
