Black smoke rises from the scene of a suspected attack on a vessel near a Saudi port

April 27 (APNEWS) – Black smoke rose near the Saudi port of Yambu on the morning of the 27th, and private maritime security firm Dryad Global warned that a ship could be attacked.

Reported that the Saudi side did not immediately acknowledge the incident. The British Maritime Trade Operations Division, which is run by the British Navy, said it was “aware of reports of the incident” and an investigation was ongoing. Ambrey, a British maritime safety firm, said several tankers were still anchoring or floating in the area.
