20 fatalities in 68 Strait of Hormuz incidents
The Strait of Hormuz has emerged as a key battleground in the ongoing six-month conflict between Iran, the United States, and Israel, with several commercial ships targeted in this vital corridor for oil and gas transit. The International Maritime Organization confirmed that 68 incidents have occurred in the Gulf and surrounding waters, resulting in the deaths of 20 sailors, injuries to 35 others, and the disappearance of one individual. Data indicates that about half of these incidents were attacks, predominantly concentrated off the coast of Oman, especially against vessels flying Iranian flags. The frequency of these events has fluctuated during negotiation periods and peace talks. Following the collapse of negotiations, the number of incidents has risen again, with four people killed in recent months, reflecting an escalation in tensions in the region.
