Tanker struck by projectile
On Aug 24, 2026, at 8.25 p.m. the 'Metro Venetian' was struck by an unidentified projectile while sailing off the coast of Oman, near the Strait of Hormuz. The incident occurred approximately nine nautical miles northeast of Ash Shishah. The master reported that a projectile struck the engine room, knocking out propulsion and leaving the tanker immobilised. The crew was reportedly safe. The tanker was towed to Fujairah by the tug 'Maria Leader' (IMO: 9257254), which had been called to assist the stricken vessel, on Aug 25. No party has claimed responsibility for the attack so far, and authorities were continuing to investigate the incident. Vessels were advised to transit with caution and report any suspicious activity to UKMTO.
