NSC denies reports on attack

Saudi Arabian forces have intercepted an explosive-laden boat off the Red Sea port of Yanbu after maritime security firms cited "unconfirmed reports" of an attack on a vessel in the area on April 27, 2021. A Saudi defence ministry statement did not say whether there had been any damage as a result of the operation by the Saudi navy to intercept and destroy the remote-controlled boat. The Security firm Dryad Global had earlier said it received "unconfirmed reports" that a vessel, possibly the oil 'NCC Dammam' had been attacked off Yanbu. The Chief executive Abdullah Aldubaikhi said that no vessels owned by National Shipping Company of Saudi Arabia (Bahri) had been attacked. The British maritime security company Ambry also cited reports of an incident and said smoke was seen rising from a vessel. The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations said it was aware of reports of an incident approximately two nautical miles from Yanbu and that investigations were ongoing.
