The footage shows the explosive-laden boat approaching the tanker and directly detonating against its hull, causing significant damage and igniting a fire that could be seen rising from the site of the explosion.

Accounts circulated footage captured by armed security personnel escorting the tanker, showing the moment they spotted the explosive boat sent by the Houthis to target the vessel.
According to the footage, the boat maneuvered at sea before rapidly closing in on the tanker, amidst heavy gunfire from the security team attempting to disable it. Their efforts, however, were in vain, as a massive explosion rocked the tanker.
