Saudi Arabia says explosive boat hit fuel ship at Jeddah port
Surveyors and divers will today assess the BW Rhine and plans are being drawn up for the ship to safely discharge its cargo. Once this is done, the ship will sail to a nearby yard for more inspections.
Saudi Arabia said an explosives-laden boat hit a fuel transport ship anchored at Jeddah the same day Hafnia reported a blast on its product tanker BW Rhine. That followed reports on Monday of a second incident at the Red Sea port.
