A Liberian-flagged chemical tanker is undamaged and still under the command of its captain, the vessel’s manager said on Monday, amid reports of an attack by Yemen’s Houthi militia off the coast of Saudi Arabia.

Axar.az informs, citing Reuters, “We are aware of security reports alleging that our managed vessel Scarlet Ray was the target of a suspected Houthi attack,” Singapore-based Eastern Pacific Shipping said in a statement.

“We confirm that the vessel has not sustained any damage and continues to operate under the command of its master,” adding that all crew members were safe and accounted for.

Yemen’s Houthis said on Monday they launched a missile towards what they said was the Israeli-owned Scarlet Ray vessel near Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea port city of Yanbu.

Eastern Pacific Shipping is owned by Israeli magnate Idan Ofer, whose late father Sami Ofer built Israel’s shipping industry.
