US ships rescued three distressed mariners
On Oct 26, 2022, U.S. Navy personnel saved three civilian mariners in the Gulf of Aden after their small motorboat caught fire. The destroyer USS 'Nitze' and the USS 'Monsoon' responded after observing the mariners in distress about 50 miles off the coast of Yemen. Their crews safely rescued the boat's occupants, before the burning vessel sank. One man required medical attention but was stable when he and the other two civilians were transferred to Yemen’s Coast Guard.
