Twenty-three Indian crew members were rescued after a fire broke out onboard the Cameroon-flagged LPG tanker MV Falcon, which went adrift following an explosion off the coast of Yemen's Aden on Saturday. The vessel was travelling from Oman's Sohar Port to Djibouti when the explosion occurred. About 15% of the ship, which was fully loaded with LPG, was on fire.
