Tensions in the Strait of Hormuz have intensified after another commercial tanker was struck by an unknown projectile near Limah, Oman, according to the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO). The impact damaged the vessel's engine room, leaving it unable to manoeuvre, while authorities launched an investigation. The incident follows earlier attacks on tankers in the region and comes as Iran continues warning ships against using what it describes as a U.S.-backed shipping corridor without permission. Tehran has also claimed vessels following American instructions could face consequences, while U.S. Central Command maintains the Strait remains an international waterway open to global navigation. #Iran #Hormuz #StraitOfHormuz #UKMTO #MaritimeSecurity #OilTanker #MiddleEast #Shipping #IRGC #Oman #BreakingNews #GlobalTrade #USCENTCOM #Gulf #WorldNews Times Of India (TOI) Is The Largest Selling English Daily In The World.
