FS Chevalier Paul Rescues Crew After Houthi Attack on Oil Tanker in Red Sea, 150,000 Tons at Risk
Aug 23, 2024, 04:30 PM
The French Navy's destroyer FS Chevalier Paul has rescued the crew of the Greek-owned oil tanker MV Sounion after it was attacked by Houthi forces in the Red Sea. The tanker, carrying 150,000 metric tons of crude oil, was hit by unmanned surface vehicles and missiles, causing significant damage and resulting in a fire. The vessel, now abandoned, poses a major environmental hazard as it drifts with three fires onboard. The attack is part of a broader campaign by the Houthis, who have targeted multiple vessels in the region, citing violations of a ban on entry to Israeli ports. The incident underscores the ongoing threat to maritime security and environmental safety in the Red Sea.
