The STRINDA chemical tanker that was attacked off the coast of Yemen had been tentatively nominated by charterers for a cargo out of the Israeli port of Ashdod in January of 2024, shipping company Mowinckel said on Tuesday.
“Upon the recommendation of our security advisors, it was decided to withhold this information until the vessel and her crew were in safe waters,” the company said in a statement.
