The vessel "VSG Glory" ran aground due to an engine malfunction near the coast of Al-Qusayr in the southern Red Sea. Authorities were immediately notified, and a tugboat was dispatched from Safaga Port to tow the vessel away from coral reefs and evacuate the crew. The ship, flying the Comoros flag, had departed from a Yemeni port en route to Port Tawfiq in Suez. It had 21 sailors on board.
