A total of 23 crew members were onboard at the time of the incident. All of them were safely evacuated, and no injuries were reported.
The investigation began months ago after a tip-off from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).
The explosion caused flooding in the engine room, which led the vessel to lose propulsion and become unmaneuverable.
The system uses modern technology to defeat digital sea mines, which are designed to detect and target nearby ships and submarines.
Per Ambrey, the ship was first attacked by eight small boats using small arms and rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs).
The strikes targeted the ports of Hodeidah, Ras Isa, and Salif, and the Ras Kanatib power station, according to the Israeli military.
During the event, Clarion disclosed plans to expand its fleet by acquiring another vessel with a capacity of 1,789 TEUs.
The agreement was signed on July 3, 2025, but is still subject to approval by ONGC’s board, as stated in a filing to the stock exchanges.
