MUSCAT (Lord Media): Unverified reports have emerged of a missile attack on an oil tanker near Oman in the Strait of Hormuz. No official confirmation has been provided by any governmental body. According to reports, the claim was made by an active social media account, which shared a video showing a light resembling fire at sea during the night. Other social media accounts have also circulated this news.
Unconfirmed reports suggest that anti-ship cruise missiles were fired from Iran’s southern region of Sirik, targeting an oil tanker passing through the southern maritime route of the Strait of Hormuz near Oman’s coast. Some posts claimed that the ship was hit by multiple missiles, but these assertions have not been independently verified.
There is no reliable information available regarding the affected oil tanker or any casualties. British maritime security agencies, the U.S. Central Command, and Iranian state media have not confirmed the incident. This development comes at a time when commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz is under pressure, and maritime negotiations between Iran and Oman are ongoing.
