Philippine Crew Evacuated from Damaged Vessel Amid Yemeni Houthi Attack in Red Sea

A Greek-owned vessel, targeted in an attack by Yemeni Houthi militants, has resulted in the evacuation of its Philippine crew members, leaving the ship adrift in the Red Sea. The incident near Yemen’s Hodeidah port on Wednesday inflicted severe damage on the Liberia-flagged coal carrier, Tutor, causing flooding and rendering it immobile. Hans Leo Cacdac, the Philippines’ minister for migrant workers, confirmed plans for salvage operations and the ongoing search for a missing crew member. This marks the third attack on ships with Filipino crews by Houthi militants in the past year.
