Two vessels associated with the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (Adnoc) were attacked while transiting the Strait of Hormuz on Thursday evening. The United Arab Emirates reported the incident, confirming that there were no injuries sustained by personnel on board the ships. State news agency WAM served as the primary source for the announcement regarding the safety of the crews.
The United Arab Emirates has formally condemned the incident, attributing the attack to Iran. Reports suggest the event is occurring within a broader context of regional tensions, as Iran has allegedly imposed a blockade on the strait and expressed intentions to charge vessels for passage, a policy that faces strong opposition from the United States.
