The UK government has demanded the return of a Manx-owned ship which was seized by a militant group in the Middle East.
The Galaxy Leader car carrier, owned by Isle of Man company Galaxy Maritime, was boarded by Houthi rebels in the Red Sea near Yemen on Sunday - they seized the ship and took 25 people hostage.
In a statement, the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office said the UK condemned the unlawful seizure.
And it called for the immediate, and unconditional, release of the ship and its crew.
