Three Tankers Hit Tuesday In Hormuz: Maritime Agency
Dubai: A British maritime agency said on Wednesday that unknown projectiles struck three ships in the Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday.
A crude oil tanker, LNG tanker and a third vessel had each "been struck by an unknown projectile", the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations Centre (UKMTO) said, without elaborating.
The Strait of Hormuz is currently at the centre of the Middle East war between Iran and the United States.
Around a fifth of the world's oil and liquefied natural gas passed through the strategic shipping lane before the war.
