New Wave of Attacks Hits Tankers and LNG Carrier in Strait of Hormuz and Persian Gulf

A tanker was struck by two unidentified projectiles in the Persian Gulf late Sunday, marking the latest in a series of attacks on commercial shipping in and around the Strait of Hormuz and Persian Gulf. The incident comes amid heightened tensions in the region and follows a similar attack on a Norwegian-owned tanker in the Gulf of Oman last week.
