Two UAE Oil Tankers Attacked While Transiting the Strait of Hormuz

Two oil tankers operated by Abu Dhabi’s ADNOC were attacked while transiting the Strait of Hormuz, the UAE said, blaming Iran and describing the incident as piracy. The drone attacks caused no injuries and no major damage, and the situation was reportedly brought under control. Britain’s maritime monitoring center said two vessels suffered minor damage after drone strikes, though it did not confirm their identities. Iran did not immediately comment. The incident highlights ongoing risks to shipping through the critical waterway.
