(Adnkronos) – Two crew members of the Eternity C, a Liberian-flagged bulk carrier operated by a Greek company, were killed last night in an attack by marine drones and armed speedboats off Yemen. This was reported by the Liberian delegation during a meeting of the United Nations International Maritime Organization (IMO). The Times of Israel reports.
The two victims are the first since June 2024 and bring to six the total number of seafarers killed in attacks by Iranian-backed Houthi rebels against merchant ships in the Red Sea.
