A source in al Mocha port, which is under the control of the government forces and the Saudi-led Arab coalition, said that the government forces have thwarted an attack launched by the Houthi-Saleh forces using a booby-trapped boat trying to target an anchored Emirati warship, but the boat was blown up before reaching the target vessel.

The source stated that the boat was blown up near to the coast, resulting in casualties.
