On June 16, 2024, the Houthi terrorists claimed to have attacked two civilian ships and one American Destroyer in the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea, stating that they had launched ballistic missiles at the American destroyer and attacked the 'Captain Paris' (IMO: 9692844), en route from Constanta to Jizan whether the Suez Canal, and 'Happy Condor', en route from Gibraltar to Mesaieed, Qatar, with naval missiles and drones. It was unclear whether any of the attacks hit their targets.

The body of the crew member, who was killed in the Houthi attack on the 'Tutor', has been trapped in the flooded engine room. It was not immediately clear whether the man died because of a projectile impact or drowned after water poured into the engine room. The vessel became the first ship to be hit by a Houthi sea drone and was subjected to at least one missile attack as well. The bulk carrier has been NUC since the attack and has suffered severe flooding and damage to its engine room. A Houthi spokesman said late on June 12 that the ship was vulnerable to sinking, which was confirmed on June 13, as the engine room was completely submerged. A salvage operation was in full swing.
