| It has been reported that a vessel was approached by a dhow, whilst underway approximately 204nm Northeast of Socotra, Yemen. The dhow came to within 0.5nm at a speed of 6 knots and did not respond to calls on VHF. The security team onboard the vessel fired two bursts of two signal flares, which resulted in the dhow altering course and passing within 1nm of the vessel's stern. The vessel and crew are reported as safe. | |||||
