Iran Renews Attacks In Hormuz? Bulk Carrier HIT in Mystery Assault, UKMTO Warns
A bulk carrier came under attack by multiple small craft near Sirik, close to the Strait of Hormuz, according to the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations. The vessel’s captain reported the incident while transiting north, raising fresh concerns over maritime security in one of the world’s most critical oil routes. All crew members were confirmed safe, and no environmental damage was reported. However, parallel reports suggest a possible link to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, with fears of a potential seizure. The incident comes amid heightened tensions and recent ship detentions in the region.
