Iran War: Operations at the port of Mocha apparently suspended

Two ships owned by the Emirati oil company Adnoc were attacked in the Strait of Hormuz. The United Arab Emirates condemned the attack, blaming Iran, and stated it was a clear violation of a UN Security Council resolution affirming freedom of navigation. The incident occurred as a 60-day truce between the US and Iran was set to expire.

Iran is working to clean up an oil spill near the island of Keschm and has suggested it should be compensated for its efforts. The cause of the oil spill is disputed, with Iran not commenting, but a tracking company suggesting it resulted from an Iranian attack on a cargo ship off Oman.
