The ship dey sail near Hodeidah when small boats just come show their face, start to open fire with guns and grenades. Na wah!

According to UK Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO), the attack happen 94km, like 51 nautical miles, southwest of where dem dey load and offload cargo for Yemen. Na dis na im be first attack for the water since April. E dey sweet for dem terrorists body to disturb peace as dem don dey go around targeting vessels since dem start one kind wahala wey concern Israel and Gaza.

These attackers wey no wan show their face yet, supposed be the Houthis, na dem control plenty area for Yemen. Dem don dey shoot vessels since last year o, claiming say na to show solidarity with Palestinians. Talk about motivation, abi? Dem don carry out like 100 attacks, sunk two ships, and on top all dis, four seafarers don die. Make we no talk am too loud, so dem no go vex pass.
