No confirmation about alleged attacks on three vessels
On May 9, 2024, Houthi militants continued targeting the MSC Mediterranean Shipping company vessels, asserting them as ‘Israeli Ships’. The militants claimed to have attacked the 'MSC Gina', 'MSC Diego' and the 'MSC Vittoria'. However, a statement of the Houthi spokesperson Yahya Saree did not provide any details nor any of the international security agencies have confirmed the attack. The military tracking operations have also not identified any new attacks on vessels or received information from ships operating in that region. The last report provided by UKMTO about the explosion near a merchant vessel came on May 7, when missiles were launched from Yemen that might have targeted the 'MSC Gina', which had departed from Sri Lanka, amd the 'MSC Diego', which had sailed from Oman, in the Gulf of Oman. Currently both vessels were providing extra assistance in the region to Djibouti. The Houthis had also claimed to have fired twice on the 'MSC Vittoria' in the Indian Ocean and laer in the Arabian Sea. This attack was also not recognized by the military tracking operation nor any information was received from the vessel.
Police trying to retrieve boat that ran into MSC Diego
Police was back in the water on Aug 4 to retrieve the wreckage of a boat that collided with the "MSC Diego" on July 26 in the Port of Montreal. The boat was destroyed on impact and most of it sank. The 31-year-old Jean-Francois Geoffrion drowned, and his body was recovered several days later. Police were using a new, more powerful sonar system that they recently acquired to locate the wreckage. Once the damaged vessel was on dry land, the police hoped they would be able to determine why Geoffrion's boat ran into the freighter. Their current hypothesis was that Geoffrion hit a buoy before running into the freighter.
Search ongoing near Port of Montreal for missing person
Montreal police will resume their search Friday for a person who was presumed to be aboard a speed boat that collided with a container ship near the Port of Montreal late Tuesday. The accident happened about 10 p.m., and witnesses said at least one person was on the boat before it sank. Small pieces of the boat, along with a life vest, were found shortly before the initial search was called off due to darkness at about 1 a.m. Wednesday morning, said Montreal fire chief John Primiani. A search of the area, which extends to Varennes, was begun Wednesday by firefighters, Montreal police, the Canadian Coast Guard and a Sûreté du Québec helicopter. It continued Thursday with Montreal police and firefighters joined by an SQ search team in the afternoon. “The SQ has sonars more powerful than the ones we have, that is why they are collaborating with us for this search since some parts of the river are deeper,” Montreal police spokesperson Benoit Boisselle said. Police have not yet received a report of a missing person. http://montrealgazette.com/news/local-news/search-resumes-near-port-of-montreal-for-missing-person
