According to multiple notifications issued by the British Maritime Trade Operations Office on the 5th, over the past few days, 3 ships have been attacked in the Strait of Hormuz, and another tanker has been persuaded by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran to return. Three of these reports showed that 2 oil tankers and 1 liquefied petroleum gas carrier were hit by “unknown projectiles” in the Strait of Hormuz on the 3rd and 4th. Investigations are currently being carried out by relevant parties. Another report shows that an oil tanker sailing into the Strait of Hormuz was asked by the Islamic Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to turn around 11 nautical miles north of Khasab in Oman on the 5th; otherwise, it would become a target of attack. The captain confirmed that the boat had made a U-turn as required.
