Unmanned boat acting 'unpredictably' near Yemen port, authorities investigating
The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) agency said on Friday it has received a report of an incident 45 nautical miles (83 kilometres) south of Yemen's Mokha.
The master of a ship reported an unmanned boat with a blue and white hull about half a nautical mile away at the location of the flagged incident.
"The boat was acting unpredictably before moving away from the area," UKMTO cited the ship's master as saying.
