Oil Tanker & Merchant Ship Hit By Projectiles As Another Tanker Burns, Risking ‘Worst Spill This Century’

Ambrey and the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) said the tanker was hit by missiles about 70 nautical miles northwest of Yemen’s port of Saleef. The merchant ship was hit about 50 nautical miles off Yemen’s Hodeidah.

The security firm said it “assessed that the tanker was targeted due to company affiliation with a vessel calling Israeli ports.”

Monday’s attack comes as the world braces for what could be one of the worst tanker spills this century. The Sounion tanker remains on fire and could be leaking oil.
