U.K. Maritime Trade Operations issued
4 Feb a report at 1500 UTC on an incident 91 nautical miles southeast of Aden
in which the master of a vessel reported two explosions. The first was a distance off the
vessel’s port quarter, the second caused damage to the vessel, with the master
reporting fire and smoke on board that the vessel was tackling. No injuries
were reported. In updates, UKMTO said first that the fire had been extinguished
and then that the ship had cleared the area and was proceeding to its next port
of call.
That vessel was identified by a
Houthi spokesman as the MSC containership MSC Sky II.
While
the Houthi spokesman identified the MSC Sky II as “Israeli,”
the Liberian-flagged ship is operated by Switzerland based Mediterranean
Shipping Company. It is the second MSC vessel to be targeted by the Houthis
following an earlier, unsuccessful, attack on the MSC Clara.
While vessel
charterers and operators continuing to transit through the Red Sea are now
taking a calculated risk with their eyes wide open, one of the biggest economic victims of the Houthi’s activities is the
Suez Canal Authority, as can be seen by the latest data from IMF Portwatch.
