🛢️ Commodity Sep 21, 7:00 PM EDT 29/20
UK Maritime Trade Operations reported Monday that an inbound tanker was struck by an unknown projectile while transiting the Strait of Hormuz. Two crew members suffered minor injuries, but the vessel continued to its next port of call under its own power with no reported environmental impact.
A second warning released hours later detailed an LPG tanker making an outbound transit that was hit by debris from unknown projectiles. The master reported all crew were safe and no environmental damage occurred as the vessel continued its voyage. These incidents extend a string of attacks against commercial shipping through the strategic waterway.
