He added that six, including five of the 22-member MV Eternity C were and an Indian armed guard, have already been rescued after Houthi rebels attacked and sank the ship last Monday.
He said that Houthi rebels in small boats attacked the ship with missiles and rocket propelled grenades.
The rescued crew members are now safe in an undisclosed location, where they will be given basic needs, administered medical exams, and adequate rest.
