3 cargo ships come under attack off Turkish Black Sea city: Company
The shipping company Tribeca on May 28 announced that three of its cargo vessels were targeted by UAVs off the coast of Türkiye’s northern province of Sinop along the Black Sea.
According to the company, the Palau-flagged vessel “James II” was en route, 80 kilometers north of Sinop’s Türkeli district, when the assault occurred. It reported that the ship was sailing without cargo.
The company further disclosed that two other unladen vessels, the Sierra Leone-flagged “Altura” and “Velora,” were struck by drones while engaged in ship-to-ship operations in a nearby quadrant.
Tribeca stated that Coast Guard vessels were dispatched to assist the cargo ships and confirmed that all crew members are in good condition.
