US forces fired on container ship
US forces fired two hellfire missiles on the 'Vela Nova', enroute from Nhava Sheva to Jebel Ali, while it was sailing in the Gulf of Oman, on Aug 11, 2026, after the vessel—according to the US account—attempted to bypass the naval blockade imposed on Iranian ports. The incident took place on thr early morning, approximately 71 nautical miles off the coast of Pakistan. US personnel enforcing the blockade issued repeated warnings to the ship, but the crew did not respond. Subsequently, a US military helicopter fired shots toward the ship's rudder. The ship was struck by a missile fired from the helicopter. The strike ignited a fire on board, which the crew subsequently managed to bring under control and extinguish. The vessel’s master confirmed the ship had been hit in the stern and steering compartment. The crew was accounted for, and no injuries were reported. The ship was NUC in pos. 23° 57' N 061° 51' E and appeared to be preparing to transfer its 17 crew members to another civilian vessel following the incident.
