An Israeli ship has been attacked by a drone in the Indian Ocean on Saturday, causing damage but no casualties, according to a French Press Agency (AFP) report quoting two maritime agencies.
The British Maritime Trade Operations Agency confirmed that the attack led to a huge explosion and a fire on board the ship before it was controlled and extinguished.
The British maritime security company Ambrey indicated that the ship flies the flag of Liberia but is linked to the Israeli occupation entity, adding that it stopped in Saudi Arabia and was heading to India.
The two agencies confirmed that the attack occurred 200 nautical miles southwest of the coast of India.
As of this writing, no party has claimed responsibility for the attack.
This came after a series of attacks launched by the Yemeni naval forces and the coastal defense on ships linked to the Zionist entity in the Red Sea, against the backdrop of the brutal Israeli occupation aggression against the Gaza Strip.
The United States previously accused Iran of attacking commercial ships near its waters.
