💨 Abstract

A crew member on a Singapore-registered chemical tanker, the BASSET, was injured due to an unauthorized boarding in the Singapore Strait on Friday. The crew member is being medically evacuated, and all other crew members are accounted for. The incident has led to increased safety broadcasts and the activation of the Singapore Police Coast Guard and Singapore Civil Defence Force. Armed robbery against ships is relatively common in the Singapore Strait.
