British maritime security firm Ambrey says it had received multiple reports of another incident involving the Rubymar cargo ship, and a number of Yemenis were reportedly harmed during the incident, which occurred on Feb. 29.

The Rubymar, which was abandoned in the southern Red Sea after being targeted by Yemen’s Houthis on February 18, was approximately 16 nautical miles west of Yemen’s Mokha at the time of the second incident, Ambrey says in an advisory note.
