Ship sinks in Red Sea off Yemen after attack: local official

DUBAI: Coast guards rescued the crew of an Indian-flagged commercial ship that sank in the Red Sea on Tuesday after an unattributed attack, an official from the Yemeni city of Mokha said.
All of the Faize Noore Oliya’s crew members — comprising 13 Indian nationals and one Yemeni — were rescued after the vessel came under attack south of the port city of Hodeida, the official said.
Indian Shipping Minister Sarbananda Sonowal said on X that the vessel was “hit by a projectile near Yemeni waters.”
