Description: A merchant vessel has reported an unidentified “craft” in the area south west of Agbami terminal in the Nigerian EEZ.
Following the attack earlier today on the bulk carrier to the south east of Agbami, it is possible that this is the same craft. The distance between the earlier attack
and this sighting also fits.
Vessels should exercise extreme caution in the area and maintain watches 24/7 for any small craft acting suspiciously in the area, and report in to authorities any sightings.
