The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) reported on Wednesday that it had been notified of an incident off the Yemeni coast in the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, with reports of explosions approximately 100 meters off the vessel's starboard but with no reports of injuries or damage. 

"UKMTO has received a report of an incident 50 NM South of Al Mukha, Yemen (please note updated position). Master reports an explosion approximately 100 meters from the vessel on its starboard side. The vessel and crew are safe, and no injuries or damage were reported. Vessels are advised to transit with caution and report any suspicious activity to UKMTO," the note reads. 

Maersk Shipping Company said that two ships flying the US flag sailed away from the Bab al-Mandab Strait today after nearby explosions.

While the company has not decreased its exports, it plans to reschedule the delivery dates for European shipments.

"QatarEnergy confirms that Qatar’s LNG production continues uninterrupted, and our commitment to ensuring the reliable supply of LNG to our customers remains unwavering while the ongoing developments in the Red Sea area may impact the scheduling of some deliveries as they take alternative routes," the state-owned company said.

Bad news for India.

Since the start of the war on Gaza, the Yemeni resistance has stated multiple times that it is compelled to seize all Israeli-linked commercial ships or Israeli-owned ships due to the Gaza genocide. 

In response to this, the US and its allies have formed a naval coalition under the alias Operation Prosperity Guardian, and have waged multiple aggressions on Yemeni positions along the Yemeni coastline, aiming to force the re-opening of the crucial maritime route.
