  • A cargo ship has been attacked.
  • It is probably an Aframax crude oil tanker but identification yet to be confirmed.

According to a recent Maritime Bulletin news report written by Mikhail Voytenko, a cargo ship has been attacked.  The identification of the ship is yet to be confirmed.

What happened?

Cargo ship was attacked at 0420 UTC Nov 17 in Gulf of Guinea some 60 nm due south from Lome Togo.
The ship wasn’t identified, but according to tracks of the ships in the area, it is most probably, Aframax tanker SKS DONGGANG (IMO 9461855), en route from Namibia to Lagos Nigeria.
 If it’s SKS DONGGANG, she may well escape, or so it looks from her track, meaning she escaped boarding. Awaiting ship’s ID confirmation, more details.
