Iran launched missile attacks on two oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, killing one sailor and injuring eight others, according to a statement from the United Arab Emirates on Tuesday. Among the injured were six Indian and two Ukrainian crew members. The incident adds to a series of deadly maritime attacks in the region since the Iran–US-Israel conflict began on February 28.
The United Nations reported last month that at least 14 sailors have been killed in attacks around the Strait of Hormuz since the conflict began, with most of the victims being Indian nationals. Previous incidents include a March 1 strike on the Marshall Islands-flagged tanker MKD Byom, which killed one Indian sailor, and another attack the same day on the Palau-flagged Skylight tanker that killed two more Indians. Additional attacks in May and June also claimed Indian lives, including a U.S. strike on June 9 that killed three Indian sailors near Oman.
The repeated attacks underscore escalating maritime risks in the Hormuz region amid ongoing hostilities between Iran and U.S.-aligned forces.
