A Cameroonian-flagged ship has caught fire in the Gulf of Aden off Yemen. At least one mariner was missing Saturday and another still likely abroad the burning tanker after the rest of the crew abandoned the vessel. British and European Union officials offered differing opinions about what sparked the blaze aboard the Falcon, with the British suggesting a projectile hit it while the EU said it appeared to be “an accident.” They warned ships in the area the vessel could explode as it was “fully loaded” with liquefied petroleum gas. Yemen's Houthi rebels have been attacking ships in the area.
