Dramatic Footage Shows Oil Tanker Hit by Kamikaze Boat Drone in Red Sea
17th July 2024
Dramatic footage has surfaced on X showing what appears to be an unmanned suicide surface drone smashing into the side of a crude tanker on Monday about 100 nautical miles northwest of Yemen’s port city of Hodeidah.
Reuters reports the Liberia-flagged oil tanker Chios Lion was hit on its portside by an unmanned watercraft, adding there is a potential risk of an oil spill.
Wouldn’t it be nice if we had some sort of naval force in the area to find and prevent this sort of thing? I wonder what that world would be like….
