Tensions in the Middle East are spilling into critical global shipping lanes as a vessel near the UAE was struck by an “unknown projectile,” triggering a fire onboard and raising fears of a wider maritime conflict. The incident occurred just 11 nautical miles off Khawr Fakkan, with the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) urging all vessels in the region to remain on high alert. The attack comes amid a sharp escalation after Iran vowed to choke oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz following strikes on its South Pars gas field. With nearly 20% of the world’s oil passing through this narrow corridor, any disruption could have massive global consequences. More than 20 vessels have reportedly been targeted since the conflict intensified, signaling a dangerous expansion of the battlefield from land and air into vital sea routes. With no clear claim of responsibility, fears are mounting that the Gulf could become the next flashpoint in the widening Iran-Israel conflict.
