No one has taken responsibility for the attacks, but according to Ambrey, the approach is the same as in previous similar attacks in the Red Sea. Much points to the Iran-backed Huthi rebels being behind it.
Neither the crew nor the ship is said to have been damaged in the attacks, and the ship is on its way to the harbor.
During a two-week period earlier in the summer, no attacks were reported in the Red Sea, but after Hamas leader Ismail Haniya was killed in Iran at the end of July, the attacks have resumed.
Huthi leader Abdul Malik al-Huthi said in a speech on Thursday that the group will continue its "operations" against the "Israeli enemy" and in support of Palestine.
The Huthi rebels have attacked ships in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden since November as part of a campaign they say is in solidarity with the Palestinians during the Gaza War.
Since January, the US and the UK have responded by launching several attacks against Huthi targets in Yemen.
