A ship was attacked by gunmen on three boats, British maritime authorities said. It's the latest vessel to come under attack in waters off Yemen after more than eight years of civil war.
Edneüs reports citing Arab News that a ship has come under attack off the coast of Yemen, the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) agency said on Friday.
The body, which operates under the British Royal Navy to protect global shipping routes, said there were "shots fired at [the] vessel."
It said the attack was launched from three boats that each had three-to-four people on board, but did not provide further details.
