**Dutch Cargo Ship Adrift and Ablaze After Attack in Gulf of Aden, EU Maritime Mission Says**
A Dutch cargo ship was left adrift and engulfed in flames following an attack in the Gulf of Aden. The incident occurred approximately 128 nautical miles southeast of the port of Aden, Yemen, when an explosion struck the vessel.
This event echoes a previous attack last October, when the oil tanker *Cordelia Moon* burst into flames after being hit by a Houthi missile off Yemen’s Hodeidah Port.

The recent attack has raised concerns about maritime security in this critical shipping lane, as the EU maritime mission continues to monitor the situation closely.
