A cargo ship has been declared a constructive total loss after being struck by multiple unidentified projectiles off Yemen’s coast. The attack highlights increasing maritime risks in the southern Red Sea, particularly around the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, which remains perilous due to ongoing Houthi activity and previous attacks on vessels.
On August 4, the Indian-flagged vessel Faize Noore Oliya was attacked and sunk off Yemen’s coast in the southern Red Sea. Identified as a bomb-boat attack, all crew members, including 13 Indians, were rescued by the Yemeni coast guard. The Indian government is coordinating efforts for their safety.
