July 17 (Reuters) – A vessel was boarded by unauthorised personnel while transiting east in the Gulf of Aden, 65 nautical miles south of Yemen’s Al Mukalla port, the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) said on Friday.
Separately, a tanker was involved in an incident with military forces about 100 nautical miles east of Oman’s Duqm on Thursday, UKMTO said. The tanker was subject to interactions as part of military activity in the region, it added.
