Container ship shot at north of the Bab el-Mandeb
Early on Oct 7, 2026, a small boat harassed the 'CUL Klang', enroute from Port Klang, and shots were fired, while the container ship was transiting the southern Red Sea in the area north of the Bab el-Mandeb. The small craft subsequently moved away from the area, and the vessel continued its northbound passage through the Red Sea. The crew was uninjured. The ship was displaying a message on its AIS that read “China owned&CHN crew.” The circumstances that caused the armed boat to withdraw remained unclear, and there were no immediate claims of responsibility. In the past, reports have indicated that some of the small boats might be fishing boats in the region and simply acting to protect their boats and fishing nets. The Houthis have said they would be only targeting ships linked to Saudi Arabia, further raising doubts that they would target a Chinese container vessel. Delivered in 2024, the 'CUL Klang' was operated by the Chinese CUL Lines, which maintained routes to the Mediterranean, Middle East, and intra-Asia.
