Hormuz shipping under fire
The strategic Strait of Hormuz has become a flashpoint for military confrontation as Iranian paramilitary forces targeted several Liberia-flagged and Greek-owned vessels.
The UK Maritime Trade Operations reported that the ships were fired upon without warning, with some sustaining damage to their bridges from rocket-propelled grenades.
These maritime incidents occur as the United States continues its naval blockade of Iranian ports, a move Tehran has labeled as 'piracy'.
The International Maritime Organization warns that nearly 20,000 seafarers are currently trapped in the region as shipping lanes remain effectively closed to commercial traffic.
