LONDON, Aug 20: A tanker has been hijacked in the Gulf of Aden after six armed men boarded the vessel and took control of it, according to the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO).<\/p>\n
UKMTO said in an advisory issued Thursday that it received a report of an incident approximately 136 nautical miles east of Al Mukalla, Yemen.<\/p>\n
The tanker had earlier broadcast a distress call on VHF Channel 16, reporting that it had been approached by an unauthorized vessel while sailing westward in the Gulf of Aden.<\/p>\n
In an update, UKMTO said it had received confirmation that six armed persons had boarded the tanker and were now in control of the vessel. The tanker was subsequently redirected toward Somalia.<\/p>\n
The incident has been classified as a hijacking, with military authorities investigating.<\/p>\n
UKMTO advised vessels operating in the area to transit with caution and report any suspicious activity to the maritime security agency.<\/p>\n
The latest incident comes amid a series of maritime security incidents and hijackings reported in the waters around Somalia and the Gulf of Aden in recent months. UKMTO maintains a voluntary reporting system for commercial vessels operating in the region.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
