Maritime Authority Reports Incident Near Khasab
The UK Maritime Trade Operations Authority received reports of two maritime incidents off the coast of Oman. The first involved an oil tanker colliding with an unidentified object 11 nautical miles from Khasab, resulting in damage to the engine room and a loss of control, but with no injuries or environmental impact. The second incident, 21 nautical miles from Khasab, involved an explosion and a strong collision near an oil tanker, with no apparent damage. On the security front, Iran continues to restrict navigation through the Strait of Hormuz since the ongoing conflict began in February, and has threatened to target vessels that use an alternative route along the coast of Oman.
