Projectiles Strike 2 Tankers in Strait of Hormuz Monday and Injure 2 Crew

An inbound tanker was struck by an unknown projectile on Sept 21, leaving two crew members with minor injuries. The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) reported the vessel continued to its next port of call under its own power and experienced no environmental impact.

A separate incident involving an LPG tanker transiting outbound from the Strait of Hormuz occurred Monday, with the ship hit by debris from unknown projectiles. All crew members on the second tanker were reported safe, and the vessel is continuing to its next port with military authorities investigating the strikes.
