Summary
The Comoros-flagged general cargo vessel Al Hasan was abandoned at Jeddah with 12 Egyptian, Syrian, and Sudanese crew. Comoros is another small open registry with limited DMLC-verification capability. Saudi Ports Authority + ITF Cairo + Egyptian consular services coordinated repatriation over 10 months. The case is representative of the persistent Middle East + Red Sea abandonment cluster on small-open-registry general-cargo tonnage.
Outcome for crew
all 12 repatriated after 10 months; no meaningful wage recovery.
