Projectile strike tests fragile Hormuz recovery
A tanker was struck by an unknown projectile east of the Strait of Hormuz near Limah, Oman, sparking an onboard fire and undermining the fragile recovery of commercial shipping through the waterway. The Joint Maritime Information Center maintains a 'substantial' threat level in the strait, and traffic remains well below pre-crisis levels despite a partial recovery following a US-Iran ceasefire last month.
