An oil tanker was damaged off the coast of Doha, Qatar, after being struck by a projectile, according to the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations on Wednesday. The agency reported that the vessel was hit on its port side, but all crew members were confirmed safe. Authorities have launched an investigation into the incident and stated that there were no environmental impacts.

The report follows a similar attack a day earlier near Dubai, where a tanker carrying two million barrels of oil from Kuwait and Saudi Arabia was damaged in a drone strike attributed to Iran. Local officials said the Dubai incident caused a fire on the vessel, which was later extinguished, and all crew members remained unharmed.

The consecutive attacks highlight rising maritime security concerns in the Gulf region, though the source did not specify who was responsible for the Qatar incident or whether the two events were connected.
