Penang MMEA director Maritime Captain Abd Razak Mohamed said the two ships, registered in Yangon, were detained at 6.50 pm and 6.55 pm, respectively, at 0.8 nautical miles northwest of Penang Port.

"The ship with the name THITDI AUNG 3 is operated by nine crew members, including the captain while the DANA THIDI 9 ship is operated by eight crew members including the captain. All of them are Myanmar nationals aged 22 to 64 and have valid identity documents.
