"Trafigura's Risk Assessment Following Houthi Attack on Red Sea Tanker"

Trafigura is evaluating the security risks of Red Sea voyages after a tanker, Marlin Luanda, was attacked by Yemen's Houthi group. Some shipping companies have suspended transits through the Red Sea due to the attacks, while others, like QatarEnergy, have rerouted their tankers. The Marlin Luanda's crew successfully extinguished a blaze caused by the attack, and the vessel is now heading to a safe harbor with assistance from Indian, U.S., and French navy vessels. The U.S. military has responded to the Houthi attacks with retaliatory strikes, and the situation remains tense in the region.
