Iran Says Two Ships Targeted In Hormuz; Maritime Agency Confirms Vessel Fire, Crew Safe
A commercial tanker has reportedly been struck by an unknown projectile in the Strait of Hormuz, forcing its crew to abandon the vessel, according to the UK Maritime Trade Operations agency. The incident comes as Iran's IRGC claims two oil tankers exploded after allegedly entering an unsafe route through the strategic waterway. Tehran has accused the United States of provoking the incident, while those claims remain unverified. At the same time, Iran-backed Houthi rebels have announced a maritime embargo targeting Saudi Arabia, adding to growing fears over shipping security, global oil supplies, and escalating military tensions across the Middle East.#StraitOfHormuz #Iran #IRGC #HormuzCrisis #OilTanker #UKMTO #Oman #MiddleEast #Houthi #SaudiArabia #USIran
