The cargo ship’s crew successfully thwarted an explosive drone boat attack in a recent Red Sea encounter, by detonating the remote-controlled attack boat with rifle fire. The small drone boat, known as an uncrewed surface vessel (USV), was trailing the cargo ship. The rifle fire became more rapid as the USV approached the side of the ship1. Eventually, a round appeared to find its mark and set off an explosive component aboard the vessel, causing it to detonate just feet away from the cargo ship. The Tutor, a Liberian-flagged, Greek-owned bulk carrier, was hit on the stern by an explosive-filled uncrewed surface vessel (USV). The Tutor was struck with missiles and an explosive-laden remote-controlled boat on June 12th and had been taking on water. The Tutor is believed to be the second ship sunk by the Iran-backed Houthis since they began attacking merchant vessels in the region in November. The Houthis, who control much of north-western Yemen, say their attacks are a show of support for the Palestinians in the war between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip. They have claimed - often falsely - that they are targeting ships only linked to Israel, the US or the UK. US and European warships have been deployed to the critical waterway since December as part of an international task force to protect commercial shipping in the crucial waterway.
