British ship struck by three projectiles
A Japanese oil tanker, known as "Singular Prosperity," was struck by three unspecified projectiles while passing through the Strait of Hormuz, 17 nautical miles east of the Omani city of Khasab. The incident, which caused a fire after several areas onboard exploded, left the crew unharmed with no reports of human injuries or environmental damage. The British Maritime Security Company confirmed that the missiles hit the port side, the engine room, and the ballast tank, leading to a loss of communication with the vessel. The incident comes amid heightened tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, where Iran imposes restrictions on passage and demands fees, effectively closing it. In response, Washington has imposed a blockade on Iranian ports, with diplomatic efforts underway to de-escalate the situation.
