The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) has issued an advisory after a merchant vessel reported being illegally boarded off the coast of Yemen.
According to the report, a small craft carrying four individuals armed with rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs) approached the vessel. The boarders reportedly damaged the bridge and adjacent compartments after gaining access.
The crew has retreated to the vessel’s citadel (anti-piracy safe room) and is reported to be safe while awaiting assistance.
