DUBAI: A commercial vessel was attacked twice by drones off the coast of Yemen on Saturday but proceeded with its voyage despite sustaining damage, a British maritime security agency said.
The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations, run by the British navy, said the attack happened 64 nautical miles northwest of Mokha, Yemen, near the strategic Bab al-Mandeb Strait.
The vessel was first hit by an uncrewed aerial system that exploded close by, causing minor damage, UKMTO said. The second attack involved an uncrewed surface vessel that also exploded nearby, it said, adding both the crew and vessel were safe.
